What to expect

You´ll pause for refreshments at Kilmahog, the gateway to the Highlands before continuing to Glencoe. The famous Glen features in many famous films, such as James Bond's Skyfall, and is the backdrop to some Harry Potter scenes from the Prisoner of Azkaban. You´ll stop here for photos and to learn all about the history of Glencoe, including the massacre of the MacDonald Clan in 1692.From the atmospheric Glencoe, travel further north through the Highland town of Fort William. There will be a stop in the area for a lunch break. After Fort William, your tour travels eastwards to the main attraction of the day; Glenfinnan Viaduct to see the Harry Potter Steam Train. Surrounded by mountains on the shores of Loch Shiel, Glenfinnan Monument symbolizes one of the most important events in Scottish history; the 1745 Jacobite Uprising. Spend approximately one hour at the monument, with enough time to see the famous Jacobite Steam Train crossing the bridge*Not only is this location famous for the Jacobite Train (aka. the Hogwarts Express), Loch Shiel was the location of the 'Black Lake'; see if you can spot a 'grindylow' under the surface causing mischief! It's also the setting for Buckbeak's beautiful flight, scenes from the Triwizard Tournament and also the stunning loch where Hogwarts is based.From Glenfinnan, begin your return journey to Edinburgh, stopping along the way for refreshments at the small village of Pitlochry before returning to Edinburgh.

We went on a day when the weather couldn't make up it's mind. However, the Highlands are stunning whatever the weather. Mohammed, our guide and driver, was great as he wanted to show us more than just the stated destinations and pp

Die Verteilung der Zeit an den jeweiligen Aufenthaltspunkten/ Sehenswürdigkeiten. In Pitlochry bspw. Hatte man nur eine halbe Stunde Aufenthalt. Es ist ein sehr schöner kleiner Ort, hier kann man etwas essen und die Ortschaft erkunden, allerdings nicht in 30 Minuten. Hier hätte man unserer Meinung nach mehr Aufenthalt einplanen müssen im Vergleich zu anderen Stopps. Ansonsten sind wir rundum zufrieden :)

Gids (Robert) vertelde interessante verhalen en was heel grappig. Minder vond ik de beenruimte in de bus. Dit was nog minder dan bij een normale vliegtuigstoel.

Jag fick ringa tui i 3 veckor tid varje dag för att få våra biljetter. Fick biljetter men trasigt format. Ingen gjorde något förrän jag höjde och skrek rösten. Sa att det var svårt att hjälpa mig för att jag bara hade bokat utflykten och inte flyg och boende via dem. Då kan man tycka att det ska stå på hemsidan. Boka allt eller inget. Vi åkte och upplevelsen var magiska och trevlig personal. Rekommendera boka på plats och inte via tui! Upplevelsen var förstörd med tanke på det som skett innan.
