What you can expect

  • Admire the views as we travel to Scalloway, the former capital of Shetland where we stop for a panoramic vista of the village.

    Next up, we pay a visit to some of the islands' most famous residents. Shetland ponies originated right here in Shetland, but thanks to their huge appeal can now be found all over the world, being especially popular as riding ponies for children and companions to horses. Carol, the stud owner, will explain in detail about these beautiful animals. Please remember that they have strong teeth and can nip so please do not feed the ponies!

    After a scenic drive through the Tingwall Valley we return to Lerwick.
