Embark on a day trip to the Scottish Highlands. Visit the Glenfinnan Viaduct, featured in the Harry Potter series, drive through Glencoe's dramatic landscapes and visit the Commando Memorial.
Embark on a journey from Edinburgh to the Glenfinnan Viaduct, a filming location for the Harry Potter series. Pass by iconic sights, including The Kelpies and Stirling Castle as you head north to the Scottish Highlands. Embark on a breathtaking journey through the dramatic landscapes of Glencoe and make a short stop in the beautiful Victorian town of Pitlochry.
Leave the lively streets of Edinburgh and pass by iconic sights, including The Kelpies, as you begin your journey northward into the breathtaking Scottish Highlands. After crossing into the Scottish Highlands, pause for refreshments before continuing north.
Move onward to Glencoe, a dramatic and renowned glen featured in films such as “James Bond’s Skyfall”, "Monty Python and The Holy Grail" and “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”. This stunning location sets the perfect atmosphere for visiting the famous “Harry Potter Bridge” later in the tour. Stop for photos and delve into Glencoe’s history, including the 1692 massacre of the MacDonald clan.
Depart the scenic Glencoe and follow the banks of Loch Linnhe to Fort William, a Highland town situated at the base of Ben Nevis, the tallest mountain in Britain. Pause here to enjoy the fresh Highland air and have an early lunch before continuing to the Glenfinnan Viaduct.
Drive east to the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, best known for its scenes in the Harry Potter film series and is beautifully set among mountains on the shores of Loch Shiel. This enchanting location is famous for the Jacobite Steam Train, which is often compared to the Hogwarts Express.
Loch Shiel also plays the role of the “Black Lake”, used as the backdrop to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in several of the films — look out for the “Giant Squid” stirring up trouble!
As you depart from Glenfinnan, your scenic journey back to Edinburgh begins. Your first stop is the Commando Memorial at Spean Bridge, where you can take in the stunning views of the Nevis Range. Continue along the picturesque Loch Laggan and then ascend above the Grampian Mountains.
Travel through the western regions of the beautiful Cairngorms National Park and pause in the charming village of Pitlochry for refreshments. Take this opportunity to stretch your legs and grab a quick bite to eat before making your way back to Edinburgh, arriving at approximately 7:00 PM.
