Location Transport

How easy is it to get from Invergordon to Inverness by public transport?

Going on a cruise later this year that stops at Invergordon. Just wondering if it is feasable to use public transport to get from there to Inverness rather than pay the type of charges cruise lines charge.

1. You can get the train to Inverness and it only takes around 50 minutes. Remember and visit the castle when your there, and Inverness folks are one of the friendliest in the coutry.
2. Or you could get the bus, http://www.stagecoachbus.com/timetables/25pckttt03012007.pdf one every hour, quater to the hour. it takes about 1 1/2 hour to traverse the hills ^_^
3. First of all, FORGET the train. The line is mainly single track, which affects both the number of trains operated and their reliability. Stagecoach Bluebird operate two services between Invergordon and Inverness. Service 25 operates via the A9 to Ardluille, then via Dingwall, Muir of Ord, Tore and the Kessock Bridge. The service is hourly during the day on Monday to Saturday between Invergordon and Inverness, reducing to every two hours in the evening and on Sundays. In the peak, there are additional journeys, including some via the Cromarty Bridge and one via Culbokie! Service 25X is the limited stop version, straight along the A9 via Ardluille, Tore and the Kessock Bridge. (Indeed, it is non-stop between Tore Interchange and Inverness College). The service is hourly on every day, but there is no evening service. This service takes an hour to Inverness. There is also the infrequent Scottish Citylink/Rapsons Coaches service between Thurso and Inverness which stops at Invergordon. In reality, the journey time is little different to Stagecoach Bluebird service 25X.
