Experience the best of the west in this quick tour!

From the tall prehistoric standing stones to stunning cliffs, this tour will take your breath away.

We begin in the Viking stronghold of Kirkwall, before embarking on a trip far back in time to before records began.

 

Marvel at the 5000 year old  impressive stone circle of Stenness was erected. Set between two lochs, this site is a haven for wildlife; including seals and birds.
