Alan's first stop is a soul-stirring guided visit to Culloden. Here, he immerses himself in the echoes of a bloody battle that unfolded on this sacred ground, understanding the profound impact it had on the tapestry of Scottish history. In the picturesque village of Plockton, Alan explores the coastal marvels of Scotland on an enthralling seal-spotting boat trip overlooking the Isle of Skye. In Garve, Alan delves into the traditions of the cattle drovers, unravelling the ingenuity behind how livestock were historically transported across the Scottish landscape. Later, the on-board whisky ambassador gives Alan a lesson on the water of life.
