Glasgow to Jacobite Steam Train

Experience some of Scotland's most spectacular scenery, including some instantly recognizable movie and TV filming locations, without the self-drive hassle. This tour from Glasgow takes you through some of the Highlands’ most dramatic landscapes as you journey to the haunting valley of Glencoe; Fort William, which sits at the foot of soaring Ben Nevis; and Glenfinnan, site of the stone bridge made famous by the Harry Potter movies.

Venture beyond Glasgow city limits—and explore some of the Highlands’ wildest and most beautiful scenery—on this full-day excursion. In the morning, set off from central Glasgow in a comfortable mini-coach. Spy Loch Lomond before stopping at the village of Glencoe, ringed by dramatic, mountainous scenery. Next, see the Silver Sands of Morar, explore the town of Mallaig, visit the Glenfinnan Viaduct (made famous by the Harry Potter movies), and more.

Exploring the Scottish Highlands typically means renting a car or relying on infrequent buses and trains. Skip the hassle with a tour from Glasgow that takes in such landmarks as Luss, Glencoe, and Rannoch Moor in one day. Plus, see the Glenfinnan Viaduct, made famous by the Harry Potter™ movies, and look out for the Jacobite steam train crossing it.

Get out of Glasgow on a full-day trip into nature, visiting Scotland’s beautiful West Highlands and Glencoe, and riding on the Jacobite Steam Train, which played the Hogwarts Express in the Harry Potter™ movies. Enjoy scenic views throughout the day from your coach and listen to your guide’s live commentary. Going on a tour lets you relax and avoid the hassle through this distractingly pretty landscape.

Visiting the Glenfinnan Viaduct is a must-do for Harry Potter™ fans—and everyone else besides. However, getting there from Glasgow means a long drive. Relax and let someone else take the wheel on a private day tour that takes care of the logistics. See the Jacobite train (a/k/a "Hogwarts Express) cross the famous railway bridge seen in the Harry Potter movies, and take in dramatic views of the Scottish Highlands at Glencoe.
