Description

Set out from Edinburgh for a full-day adventure through the dramatic Scottish Highlands, where cinematic landscapes and historic landmarks await. This guided journey is perfect for fans of Harry Potter and James Bond, as well as anyone eager to experience Scotland’s natural beauty and rich heritage.

Travel north past iconic sites like Linlithgow Palace, the mythical Kelpies, and Stirling Castle, learning about their history from your knowledgeable driver-guide. Pause in Callander for refreshments and, depending on the season, a chance to spot Highland cows before continuing deeper into the Highlands.

Marvel at the rugged beauty of Glencoe, famous for its haunting history and breathtaking mountain scenery. Enjoy a lunch break in Fort William, a charming Highland town with plenty of local eateries to choose from, before heading to the highlight of your day.

Arrive at the Glenfinnan Viaduct, instantly recognizable from the Harry Potter films. Take a short walk to the viewpoint for spectacular vistas over Loch Shiel and, during the seasonal schedule, watch the Jacobite Steam Train cross the viaduct. Your return journey includes a relaxing stop in the Victorian town of Pitlochry before heading back to Edinburgh via the impressive Forth Rail Bridge.

This 12-hour tour includes travel in an air-conditioned vehicle and the expertise of an English-speaking guide. Please note that food, drinks, and entry onto the Jacobite Steam Train are not included. Children under five are not permitted. Secure your spot now for an unforgettable Highlands experience!
