  • Invergordon is your starting point for a fabulous cruise ship excursion to the amazing Scottish Highlands. Travel from Invergordon to Inverness, then on to the grand sights of Loch Ness and Culloden! This destination in Scotland is a must do!

    I just came from my NCL 10 days England/Ireland trip. I love this city! When the ship was leaving the pipers came to play as the ship departed. It move me to tears.

      We fell in love with the Highlands. Everything - the beauty, the people, even the food - sold us on coming back. We had pipers on our Greenock port and it was quite wonderful!

    No idea why I'm watching this but your videos are very engaging, very well edited. Invergordon itself ain't much of a burg, as you say it functions as a port not a destination in of itself. If you can get across to the opposite shore, and I think there's a ferry in Summer you can visit Cromarty, and if Olde Worlde is your thing, definitely worth a visit.

      Wow! Thanks so much! Olde Worlde is definitely my thing so I'm definitely gonna take note of your suggestion, sir. For next time.

    The information will be very useful to me this July 2024 as my granddaughter and I are cruising and this port is one of our stops. Thank you

    I was there 5 months ago and loved every minute of it. McRae's was a great little shop for tourists, and I ate the best sausage roll nearby at Harry Gow's (pronounced heddy gow). Aon de na h-àiteachan as fheàrr leam air an talamh - gu ruige seo - pardon my rusty Scottish Gaelic (pronounced gal lig)

    From the highlands yes it is, for the most part beautiful, invergordon? The place is shocking, i lived there for a couple of years. This video is doing it justice 😂😂😂

      @@ThePortLowdown not particularly. I worked in the marine Hotel. Friendly staff, used to be good pub food plenty of it at good prices. The hotel used to be used mainly by offshore workers.
      Alnes (one mile away) is quite a nice little town, has some interesting history. The station hotel (worked there also!) Was excellent for a drink and great food.
      I spent almost five years working and living as a chef in Inverness. I love the place. Worked in many restaurants and hotels there and know the place very well.
      If you're visiting there of any other area in the Highlands can also recommend places to visit or stay.
      Just message back.

      I know. I'm probably butchering my pronunciation, so sorry about that. Sometimes I look it up online before recording narration, but even that could be wrong. 🙄

      Maybe next time I'll have a local on camera correcting me. That would be kinda funny. Anyway, all the best to you and my apologies!
