    We’ll start by travelling west past the town of Alness and over the Cromarty Firth towards Beauly, where we will arrive at Beauly Priory, a beautiful ancient monastery that now lies in ruins but retains an air of reverence and mystery. Beauly Priory was founded around 1230 by monks of the Valliscaulian order. They came from their mother house in Burgundy, in France, and settled beside the Beauly River, at the place where it enters the Beauly Firth. They were invited to do so by the lord, Sir John Bisset. And there their successors lived for the next 300 years, until the Protestant Reformation of 1560 brought their cloistered and contemplative life to an abrupt end. Today their legacy lives on, in their pretty, tree-fringed abbey church, roofless but otherwise largely intact. and on to loch ness 30 min drive

Our Inverness visit was more than we had hoped for. Johnny, our guide, made sure the four of us had a great time, making side trips to suit our interests, and answering all of our questions. I am a nervous rider, but I always felt safe with Johnny driving. He also would tell us funny stories, as well as a lot of history in a way that was never boring. I highly recommend this tour.
