Highland magic: a day of cinematic landscapes

Step into the enchanting world of Scotland's Highlands with the Glenfinnan, Glencoe, and Fort William full-day tour. Beginning at Edinburgh's heart, escape the city's hustle to the tranquillity of the Scottish Highlands. Your knowledgeable driver-guide will accompany you, sharing gripping tales of the region. Your first stop is Callander for a quick refuel before you journey towards the cinematic landscapes of Glencoe. Walk the same ground as James Bond and Harry Potter, and learn about the chilling MacDonald clan massacre of 1692.

Railway to Hogwarts: uncover movie magic and historical wonders

Post Glencoe’s immersive history, travel towards Fort William, nestled at the foot of Britain's loftiest peak, Ben Nevis. Enjoy a well-deserved lunch break here before heading to the Glenfinnan Viaduct. Known globally as the Harry Potter Bridge, this architectural marvel is the centerpiece of many iconic movie scenes. Just steps away, find the Glenfinnan Monument, which marks a pivotal moment in Scottish history, the 1745 Jacobite uprising. Wrap up with a relaxing break in the charming village of Pitlochry before journeying back to Edinburgh.
