Local attractions
Inverness, the bustling, attractive capital of the Highlands and Scotland's millennium city, makes an ideal base for exploring the area. The city sits on the picturesque River Ness, which flows into the Moray Firth - probably the best place to see dolphins in Europe. To the east is the traditional seaside resort of Nairn with its golden sandy beaches and championship golf courses, and to the north the pretty Highland village of Beauly.

What I liked most about the course: The fact that we were paired and grouped, so that those who were less confident at standing up and speaking or acting out scenarios did not feel alone and even more nervous. It would be at a later stage that you would feel able to do tasks on own.
