Spied: a James Bond-themed driving adventure in Scotland
Bespoke travel company Pelorus has devised a 007 drive in the Highlands as part of a collection of Bond-based adventures.
Your mission starts with a flight to Inverness and high-speed driving lessons on a private race track under the tuition of a stunt driver. Next you’ll be able to pick from a selection of supercars to tackle sections of the North Cost 500, as featured in Skyfall. The all-action trip also involves helicopter rides, kayak and RIB rides, and abseiling down cliff faces, before pausing to sample some single malts (or a dry vodka martini) and staying on a private island.
The adventure costs around £13,000 for two people, and if you think that’s expensive wait until you hear what else Pelorus has in its 007 portfolio. An explosive 12-day Greenland-based trip aboard a luxury yacht costs over £400,000 for a group of 12 or you could go wild in the jungles of Thailand for £10,000 per person, while heli-skiing in the Dolomites and flying on to Venice is around £8,000 a night.
