Glasgow: Glenfinnan Viaduct & The Highlands

Take in the stunning Highland locations made famous by the Harry Potter and James Bond film series on a full-day trip from Glasgow. Pass famous landmarks such as Loch Lomond

Start your adventure by heading northwest towards our first stop in the village of Luss. Situated on the western shore of Loch Lomond, known for its charming cottages and stunning views of the loch, Luss offers a tranquil setting for a leisurely stroll along the shore and through the village.

Continuing our travels through Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park we travel onwards to Glencoe. As you make your way through the glen, Your Driver / Guide will be keen to point out the scenic spots used in films such as James Bonds' Skyfall, and as the backdrop to some scenes from Harry Potter franchise. We quickly stop in Glencoe for a photo opportunity where you'll stand in awe of the dramatic ridges named the Three Sisters.

Travelling north along the banks of Loch Linnhe, we head through the natural beauty of the Great Glen as we pass Britain’s highest mountain, Ben Nevis, and onwards to the Glenfinnan viaduct.

The Glenfinnan Viaduct, our main attraction, made famous from its scenes in the Harry Potter movies from the filming of the Hogwarts Express. From the visitors centre you will be able to take a short walk to the viewpoint to take in the breath-taking sight of the Viaduct or back down the glen for views across Loch Shiel (Black Lake) which was also used in various Harry Potter scenes as well as the loch on which Hogwarts sits.

Leaving Glenfinnan, our tour will begin its journey south. The road home will be time to relax and take in the Highland scenery. Your guide will make a stop or two for a photo before your final stop in Callander on route home.
