Test centre address: Portree GVTS, Lisigarry Place, Industrial Estate, Portree, Isle of Skye IV51 9BD
Portree's driving tests run from the goods vehicle testing station on the industrial estate at Lisigarry Place, off Home Farm Road. It's Skye's main centre and one of the smallest in the country, and learners come from Portree, Dunvegan, Uig, Staffin, Carbost, Edinbane, Sligachan and Raasay.
Only 128 car tests were taken there in a year, and it's one of the better centres to pass at: 57%, above the 50% across Great Britain.
Skye's other centre is at Broadford, and Kyle of Lochalsh is across the bridge, about 21 miles away as the crow flies.
How long is the wait at Portree driving test centre?
If you book at Portree on your own, the first week with a good choice of free dates is 24+ weeks away. That's about the same as most test centres.
You don't have to wait that out or keep checking yourself. We usually find learners an earlier test date within 1 to 2 weeks of signing up, and often within a few days. The test itself may still be a few weeks away, but it's earlier than the date you'd get booking on your own.
See how that compares with the wait at every test centre in the country.
