Take in the stunning Highland locations made famous by the Harry Potter and James Bond film series.

Passing famous landmarks such as Linlithgow Palace, the mythical Kelpies, and the dramatically perched Stirling Castle.

Head north through Glencoe while your Driver / Guide points out the film locations for the James Bond and Harry Potter franchise

Stop in the Fort William area for lunch before a short drive to the Glenfinnan viaduct which was made famous from its scenes in the Harry Potter movies from the filming of the Hogwarts Express. Take a short walk to the viewpoint where you will have unparallel views across to the viaduct and over Loch Shiel.

The road home will be time to relax and take in the Highland scenery. Final stop is at the historic town of Pitlochry before continuing home over the Firth of Forth alongside UNESCO Forth Rail Bridge enroute back into Edinburgh.

Glenfinnan viaduct was good to see from the lower walk to get a view of the impressive arches, pity the train was not operational. Great to see the Scottish highlands.

Amazing views and lovely places to see.

Mary had great knowledge of the area. Would definitely recommend for anyone to tour on this road trip.

We didn’t see the cows, the lambs and the train wasn't even there (she warned us when we were there). It could have been a better experience

Mary was our guide and was wonderful! On tour we stopped everywhere as planned and was timed well at each spot. The views were breathtaking and Mary was very friendly and told the stories of the locations well. Tip: if riding in the van from Edinburgh, get there earlier than the meeting time to choose your seat and try to sit on the left side near the window as the views are best there

This tour was fantastic way to spend the day. Our guide was Mary, and she was a delight the whole day. The views were gorgeous. All of that deserves 5 stars.

The only reason that this review gets 4 stars rather than 5 is that the seats on the bus, while comfortable, were very small so we felt squished during the ride.

Highly recommend — absolutely fantastic tour! Beautiful stops and just enough time at each along the way. Great way to see the Highlands in a day. Our tour guide, Anthony, was the best of the best. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, personable, funny and accommodating. We learned/saw where Harry Potter filming locations were, along with important historical stories of Scotland. You’ll love him, if you’re lucky enough to have him!

Great trip through the Highlands and Glennfinnan Viaduct. Too bad that the train wasn't running all its regular times, so we didn't get to see it. But our guide, Anthony, knows a lot about the history of the highlands and Scotland and gave us a tip to go see the lake Shiel, which was also a Harry Potter filming location, besides the viaduct, so that was a good addition.
