Overview

Would you like to visit the Glenfinnan Viaduct, the famous bridge crossed by the Hogwarts Express steam train in the Harry Potter movies? Would you like to take in beautiful views of Ben Nevis, the highest peak in the UK? Why not take a trip into the absolutely stunning Lochaber region in the West Highlands of Scotland and see the Great Glen all in the comfort of one of our 8-seater vehicles? This tour is NOT available to people who are on a cruise ship in the Port of Invergordon. This is because the meeting point for this tour is 25 miles from the ship and we can't guarantee at the end of the tour you would be back on time for your ship to sail.

William was a fantastic guide! He was thoughtful, a wonderful storyteller, and didn’t rush us from any stop. The tour couldn’t have been better.

The tour was great, Niall our guide was very good at keeping us all informed of where we were and had lots of storys, jokes and facts about the Highlands and places we passed through. The viaduct and steam train was a great experience and I will remember it for a long time. Despite the rain we had a great day out and Niall looked after us with umbrellas and a wee dram to warm us up.
