Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)
I don't really know too much about Wick, but they do run great boat trips daily from the harbour, it goes into all the caves and pokey wee places, it's very popular. You can, and should ,book online to do the Maxi Tour to Orkney for the day. Boat leaves John o Groats about 8.30am and back around 8pm,. It takes in all the sights, Scarra Brae, Ring of Brodgar, Italian Chappel and more. You get an hour or so in Stromness for lunch and another hour to shop in Kirkwall or see the cathedral.. Heading to Thurso there's the castle ruins there and the huge waves at the Reef that the Surfers love, Cliff walks and lots of sea birds Puffins are fabby. Then there's the Sea Stacks at Duncansby, lot's of Lighthouses to visit. I love the walk from the A9 car park through the hills to the Highland Clearance Village of Badbea, steeped in history and kind of sad to visit, but again worth it. For a great evening meal out you need to drive to Scrabster and book to the Ferry Inn, one wall is all glass overlooking the busy harbour. Lovely place. There's the Castle of Mey that the Queen Mum owned and used for holidays, there's Dunrobin Castle and Falconry. But she really needs to Google the area.Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)
There's an hourly bus runs between Wick and Thurso but that's the only one I know about. Just make sure to tell her to take a pair of comfy hiking boots with her, as most people do a lot of hoofing when they come lol. She'll also find the air is different, it's so clean and it seems to tire visitors out, they sleep like logs lol.. If she comes off season she'll likely get to see the Aurora, it dances a lot towards winter......Beautiful.. If she can drive then she needs to hire a car to see everything...Re: Over 50's Club Scotland (part 3)
