Really fun and interesting bike tour with Alison
Published on Jan, 2025
We only really had one day in Inverness so we wanted to do a tour so we could learn a little bit more about the city. It was due to storm the day we planned the tour with lots of rain so we put our waterproofs on and hoped for three best (we got lucky in the end with just a bit of light rain). Really enjoyed the tour. Alison was so lovely and really knowledgeable about the city. Everyone knew who she was and lots of people stopped to chat which was nice. Was a fantastic couple of hours and we got to see so much more on the bikes. Would definitely recommend this.

Great way to experience the waterways of Inverness
Published on Oct, 2024
It was very nice to experience Inverness by bike. At the community gardens we had a short, but lovely break. Our local Inverness guide did an amazing job. We would highly recommend this trip. Lovely views, sights and you really get a great overview of what Inverness has to offer. Bring a raincoat.
