Inverness: The Gateway to the Highlands || Scotland Travel Vlog

In the far north of the British Isles is Inverness, the gateway to the Highlands of Scotland. It’s a small, quaint city built around the river Ness and full of church steeples with a castle looming on a hill over the old town. Colorful storefronts, cultured pubs, and winding streets give the city a small town charm, while the rolling hills surrounding the city beg you to explore the highlands further. This was my first stop on my tour through Scotland and here’s how it went…

Very nice video of the city! I visited Inverness with my parents on holiday 20 years ago as part of a tour of the Highlands. I still miss this city and can't wait to come back.

[@thetravelingzam]

I really want to go back too. Such a peaceful little town with incredible surroundings

[@carlasofialanca2265]

Hello! I went to inverness this month and I loved it. Did you know that the old church is for sale? And people were soooooo nice❤️ hope to get to Scotland again

[@thetravelingzam]

No I had no idea. How much was it?

[@carlasofialanca2265]

@@thetravelingzam it wasn't written the price, just the phone number and the agency which is selling it. I checked in the internet and the offer is 150000

[@NicholasEV1986]

I lived in Inverness with my parents for a few years. Had to leave for work, unfortunately, but I absolutely loved my time there. Once i retire, that's where I'm moving to, if I live to that age 🙈.

[@thetravelingzam]

It’s a lovely place!

[@ruchiramunjal6061]

[@thetravelingzam]

I will try. As I mentioned I have a lot of videos to work through and now focused on Christmas content. Thanks for letting me know it’s on demand

[@brianmorrison9168]

Is there enough to see and do in Inverness for a couple of days ? Over the past year and half, my wife and have had several short city breaks which have included London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, York and Liverpool, with three more repeat trips already planned for this year. I am trying to think of somewhere new to visit, for late in the year, or even early 2025, hence this question. I’m thinking about a 2 day trip to Inverness, then 2 in Aberdeen. Both have direct trains from Newcastle on LNER, a company we rate highly. Although my wife likes the shops, we both enjoy seeing new places of interest, such as museums, cathedrals etc.

[@adventurescotland]

With all the possible activities you can spend up to four days in Inverness and explore it and its surroundings.

[@brianmorrison9168]

@@adventurescotland Many thanks !

[@thetravelingzam]

It's a smaller town, so not too much to do or see, but a nice launching point for more Highland adventures. A good stopover town in my opinion if you are heading north.

[@adventurescotland]

@@thetravelingzam Inverness is a city (one of only 7 in Scotland) and not a town. Also it has to offer more than people see when they arrive (and no, I don’t even life in Inverness - roughly 40 miles away from Inverness). It still depends on your interests and activities you are planning to do.

[@kumasenlac5504]

Would the gateway cities to the Highlands rather be Stirling in the West and Perth in the East ?

[@thetravelingzam]

Maybe. But I flew in here so for me it was the gateway and I heard others refer to it as such.

[@macleod41069]

Inverness is not the gateway to the highlands …..it’s way up in the the highlands

[@thetravelingzam]

For me I flew in there so it was my gateway lol

[@fancynancymacy]

You absolutely ruined the cathedral with your forboding what pasted for music

[@thetravelingzam]

Sorry you didn’t like it :/

[@CharlotteFord-nm6zi]

NOT the most northern city in Scotland. 😂.

[@thetravelingzam]

If not, which one is?
