Harry Potter & The Hogwarts Express

Our story begins in enchanting Edinburgh. As we depart the city for the day, your guide will reveal Edinburgh’s claims to Harry Potter fame. Soon, our journey north will showcase views of the iconic Forth Bridge: a stunning landmark which was completed in 1890 and became a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2015. We pass the Kingdom of Fife and Perth, the ancient capital of Scotland, before entering the wildly gorgeous Scottish Highlands.
Brace yourself for the beauty of the west coast and catch a glimpse of the famous Glenfinnan Viaduct as we pass – you’ll be travelling across its stunning arches next! It’s time to board the Harry Potter train AKA Jacobite Steam Train. The train departs from the fishing village of Mallaig and takes you on a journey across one of the world’s most beautiful railway lines. It’ll blow your wee socks off!
After this epic two-hour ride, it’s time to disembark the train and reunite with your guide at Fort William train station to continue your adventure by coach (bus). There is more dramatic scenery to come, in the shape of atmospheric Glen Coe - backdrop for several scenes in Harry Potter and the home of Hagrid’s Hut – which gives way to the remote and rugged Rannoch Moor. Immerse your imagination in tales of Scotland’s past, all the way back to Edinburgh, arriving in the late evening.
