Highlights
You can have a fun filled private tour with a local lad and some of his family (most frequently his Mum). Nathaniel says "I have researched lots of information on the local area and am always learning and adding more every day". The tour is operated by a 15 year old with assistance from mum. We offer a unique youthful perspective on the history of the town of Fort William. I will lead you through the entire High Street giving you a tale or two of what happened here in the past and how life looks here now. We stop at some of the iconic buildings and monuments and I have a story or two that is not so well known! Fort William has been a trend setter in its day and houses quite a few artefacts that can only be seen in 2 or 3 places in the whole of Britain! We can’t wait to share it all with you.

About Fort William
Fort William is the Highland town beneath Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Britain, at the head of a sea loch and the end of the West Highland Way.
Fort William lies on the shore of Loch Linnhe in the western Highlands, with Ben Nevis, 1,345 metres high, rising behind it. The town grew around a military fort and is now a busy base for hillwalking, climbing, cycling and skiing, and the long-distance West Highland Way, from Milngavie near Glasgow, ends here.
