  • Accommodation: We spend overnight in Fort William
Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park
  • 30m
Departing Edinburgh, our two-day tour will begin by heading west and collecting our Glasgow passengers. From there, we will head north, passing by the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond and stopping for a comfort break in the scenic loch-side village of Luss
Inveraray
  • 1h 10m
We continue west, passing the magnificent Rest and Be Thankful pass before arriving in Inveraray. Home to the spectacular Inveraray Castle, which you might recognise from Downton Abbey, the Royal Burgh of Inveraray makes for a perfect stop. We will take time here to enjoy the loch-side views, explore the streets, and grab some lunch before continuing north into the Highlands.
Glencoe
  • 15m
On our way north, we will pass through dramatic Glencoe, site of the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald Clan. You might recognise this valley from James Bond’s Skyfall. We will take time here to learn about the area’s history, as well as getting some fantastic photos.
Glenfinnan Viaduct
  • 45m
Following a quick comfort break in the area, we will continue on to the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, which you may recognise from the Harry Potter movies. During summer months, we will arrive with time to see the Jacobite Steam Train (or Hogwarts Express) crossing the bridge and get that famous photo. Please note: the Jacobite Steam Train is operated by a third party and as such we cannot guarantee that the train will be running or that the tour will meet up with the train in time to see it cross the viaduct.
Fort William
  • 14h
We then end our exciting first day of touring by arriving in Fort William, where you will check in to your accommodation for the night.

Eilean Donan Castle

  • Admission ticket not included
After a hearty highland breakfast, we will begin our second day of touring by checking out of our accommodation and heading north to Glengarry Viewpoint, offering spectacular views. Keep an eye out for how Loch Garry looks for the viewpoint, as it is meant to look like a bird’s eye view of mainland Scotland. From that brilliant view, our tour continues eastwards towards Scotland’s most photographed castle, Eilean Donan. Take time here to explore the castle and its grounds and learn about its fascinating history.
Fort Augustus
  • 1h

This engineering giant spans the Firth of Forth, and joins the Forth Road Bridge and iconic Forth Rail Bridge, representing 3 centuries of Scottish engineering and innovation.
