    Begin your adventure with a visit to the Calanais Standing Stones, a site older than Stonehenge. Marvel at the ancient stones and learn about their history and significance.

    Next, head to the Blackhouse Village at Gearrannan. Discover how people used to live in these traditional stone houses and gain insight into the island’s past.

    Continue to the Dun Carloway Broch, a well-preserved Iron Age structure. Explore the site and imagine what life was like for its ancient inhabitants.

    Visit the Norse Mill and Bru Sheilling, two more historic sites that offer a glimpse into the island’s rich history.

    Throughout the tour, enjoy the stunning scenery of the Isle of Lewis and have the chance to ask your driver-guide any questions you may have.
