The former world heavyweight champion dropped by Carbisdale Castle in the Highlands.
He was shown around the grounds of the 118-year-old country pile and told of the work that had gone into transforming it into a luxury home.
But owner Samantha Kane was unable to welcome the Gypsy King as she attending Royal Ascot in Berkshire.
She said: "World-famous heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury made an unexpected visit to Carbisdale Castle while I was at Ascot yesterday and was greeted by Sarah and Michael, who showed him around the Castle and what was achieved in bringing Carbisdale to its former glory.
'He was very impressed indeed. Thank you Tyson for your visit.'
Earlier this week, Fury was spotted strutting topless around Grantown-on-Spey in Moray wearing a red tartan kilt and matching tie.
The 9ft 9ins star got fitted out at a kiltmaker in the small town and chatted with locals.
He also enjoyed a drink in the Claymore Bar where he downed Guinness and posed for photos with staff.
The ex-boxer has also visited Wick and John O'Groats in the Caithness region.
He is visiting with his wife, Paris, children and film crew as he makes the second season of At Home With The Fury's.

He happily posed for photos with fans, including Cromdale FC manager Stuart Dunbar, who jokingly tried to sign him up.
Ms Kane is the only person in Britain to have changed gender three times.
Born in Iraq as a man, named Sam Hashimi, she had surgery in 1997 to become Samantha, before a second operation in 2004 when she changed her name to Charles Kane and then a third surgery to become Samantha again in 2018.
The barrister and business tycoon spearheaded a Saudi bid to buy Sheffield United Football Club in 2000.
She called herself Lady Carbisdale after buying the dilapidated 19-bedroom clifftop castle, near Ardgay, in 2022.
Fury retired in January, eight months after suffering the only defeat of his career at the time when he lost to Oleksandr Usyk by split decision.
During a rematch last December, the Ukrainian won by unanimous decision.

Scotland's ‘most popular' footballer revealed – and it's not Scott McTominay
Their Instagram figures could be translated into 'millions of pounds' WINSTAGRAM Scotland's 'most popular' footballer revealed – and it's not Scott McTominay Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SCOTLAND captain Andy Robertson is top of a Tartan Army popularity table on Instagram. Liverpool ace Robbo, 31, has 4.4million followers on the photo-sharing site.

And the pair, plus re-signed Celtic hero Kieran Tierney, 28 — who has a million social media fans — are primed to rake in fortunes from their posts. Brand expert Nick Ede told how they are cashing in on links to other major teams. Robbo is tipped to move to Spain's Atletico Madrid, while McTominay started at Manchester United and Tierney was at Arsenal for six years. Mr Ede said their Instagram figures could be translated into 'millions of pounds'. He explained: 'They attract loads of followers, and not just football fans. "As with any kind of public figure, people want to know more about them. 'And that could be brands they're associated with. It builds up your following. 'It also means they have a strong currency to expand their personal brand — and it's great for the team they play for.' But the trio are not prolific contributors. Tartan Army fan who walked to Germany embarking on new challenge for the World Cup Robertson has posted 761 times on Instagram since 2013, while McTominay has shared pics 332 times since 2016 and Tierney just 215. Mr Ede said: 'Someone like Andy could command £100,000 a post for a top brand. There is a lot of opportunity.'

Martin Odegaard marries stunning partner Helene with Arsenal pal Bukayo Saka and girlfriend Tolami among guests
Other top stars were in attendance ODEGARTER Martin Odegaard marries stunning partner Helene with Arsenal pal Bukayo Saka and girlfriend Tolami among guests MARTIN ODEGAARD married partner Helene Spilling in front of the Arsenal captain's teammates and pals during a ceremony in Norway. Odegaard, 26, and Helene, 29, said 'I do' in front of their loved ones, months after reports claimed they had already secretly tied the knot. 10 Martin Odegaard and partner Helene Spilling have married in Norway Credit: AP 10 The happy couple tied the knot in Oslo Credit: EPA 10 Odegaard and Helene secretly married last year Credit: AP Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang reported last November that Odegaard had changed his status to married in the national register. While Helene had updated her name to Helene Spilling Odegaard. But now the pair have invited their nearest and dearest to Oslo to watch them officially become husband and wife. That list of exclusive attendees included Arsenal stars Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard. Saka, 23, was looking sharp in a tuxedo as he was pictured arm in arm with his girlfriend Tolami Benson. Tolami, who wore a classy black dress to match the England winger's outfit, is thought to have started dating Saka back in 2020. Havertz was also in attendance to show up for Odegaard since the pair have become close following his move to the Emirates Stadium in 2023. Havertz and Odegaard have already jetted away on holiday together and their partners are often seen spending time with one and other too. 10 Bukayo Saka and his girlfriend Tolami Benson looked smart as they attended the wedding Credit: EPA 10 Martin Odegaard, Kai Havertz and their partners have gown close since joining Arsenal Credit: Instagram @ odegaard.98 10 Odegaard and Havertz have headed on holiday together Credit: Instagram @ odegaard.98 10 Leandro Trossard also attended his teammates wedding Credit: Getty While Leandro Trossard and his wife Laura Hilven were also seen at the ceremony. Helene is always supporting Odegaard in the stands at Arsenal's games and it appears the pair have made close friends with the midfielder's teammates since his Real Madrid switch. Helene is a star in her own right too, having won Norwegian dance show 'Skal vi Danse' in 2021 - a show similar to Strictly Come Dancing. And her impressive moves go much further than the TV screen, boasting 17 gold medals in the Norwegian national championship for ballroom dancing. Odegaard and Helene have been public with their relationship since mid 2023 and welcomed their first child last year. In a post on Instagram in December, the couple shared a photo of their son's hand alongside the caption: "We love you so much, our little baby boy." 10 Helene and Odegaard welcomed their son in December Credit: 10 Helene is always supporting Odegaard Credit: Instagram / @odegaard.98
