Two-day Highlands bus tour from Edinburgh with Culloden, Loch Ness, Glen Coe, and the Jacobite steam train, Hogwarts Express.

“Overall we had a great time! Our tour guide was possibly the best part of our tour, his name is Iain, it all started with finding out that the Loch Ness Cruise had been cancelled that day which meant no cruise and no castle. This was not good news BUT Iain had so much knowledge on the area that he took us to some beautiful waterfalls at The Hermitage as well as feeding some Hairy Coo’s! We then carried on the tour as planned until we got to our BnB which was lovely! The train was amazing and of course a highlight but on the way back to Edinburgh it…”

The tour guide Stuart was telling lots of interesting stories, we were able to stop and admire the views during the trip with longer stops in the most popular places like Eileen Donan Castle, Loch Ness or Glenfinnan Viaduct. The night in Fort William was a nice stop and I could admire the beautiful sunset just by the Lake Loch Linnhe. The tour guide was very friendly and I now I know lots of new things about Scotland .I would highly recommend this tour. THX”
