On the route North they will be visiting Loch Lomond and the Isle of Skye before flying over to Inverness to the start of the North Coast 500 route. The route home will see flying visits to Pitlochry and Edinburgh.
It wouldn’t be a Sticky Beak tour without going slightly off the beaten track to visit as many cafes, restaurants and food (and drink) producers as they can. They want to take the opportunity to try all that Scotland has got to offer, not just iconic dishes but local specialities too.
The full itinerary is listed below;
Day 1 – Loch Lomond
Day 2 – Isle Of Skye
Day 3 – Inverness
Day 4 – Tain
Day 5 – Brora
Day 6 – Scrabster
Day 7 – Tongue
Day 8 – Lochinver
Day 9 – Gairloch
Day 10 – Kinlochewe
Day 11 – Inverness
Day 12 – Blair Atholl
Day 13 – Edinburgh
