Heather I did say the Inverness area, so it's a given that tourists will go to Loch Ness.
As for John O'Groats, it's such a long haul up there and such bare flat countryside with
little to do I would not recommend anyone to travel that far on a first trip. I have a friend who
was born in Thurso and even she hates travelling back up there to see the family. I have also tried to show that you don't have to go to every touristy place to enjoy Scotland.
