The Loch Ness Centre in the Scottish Highlands has expanded with the launch of nine new tours to welcome a growing number of international visitors.
Via a press release, following an investment by the centre’s operator, Continuum Attractions, guests from across the world can now take the tour in one of nine languages.
The Loch Ness Centre welcomes more than 110,00 guests each year, with 45 percent of those coming from outside of the UK.
The visitor attraction, which was reopened by Continuum in 2023 after a £1.5m redevelopment, can welcome guests speaking Mandarin, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese and Spanish without the need for them to use a headset.
Located less than an hour from the Loch Ness Centre, the Port of Invergordon is scheduled to welcome more than 120 cruise ships this year, bringing international tourists to the Highlands.
Tours in Dutch, French, German, and more
Nagina Ishaq, general manager of the Loch Ness Centre, said: “We are thrilled to offer our immersive tour experience in nine languages, making the legend of Loch Ness more accessible than ever before.
“This investment ensures that visitors from around the world can connect with the history, mystery, and science behind the loch and its secrets in a way that feels personal and engaging.
“With the Port of Invergordon welcoming a significant number of potential guests onto our doorstep each year, this also allows us to better cater to the growing number of international visitors exploring the Highlands by sea, as well as those travelling by other means.”
Meanwhile, the Loch Ness Centre is recruiting for a full-time Nessie hunter, also known as a research vessel skipper.
“This is one of the most unique roles in the tourism industry,” said Ishaq.
