From Glasgow: 1-Day Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glen Coe & Loch Lomond Tour

Depart Glasgow
Board your comfortable 16-seat minibus in Glasgow and set off on a full day of Highland adventure. As we leave the city behind, your driver-guide will share local insights and fascinating stories about Scotland’s history and culture.

Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park
Our first stop takes you to the eastern side of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. Stretch your legs, enjoy the scenery, and take photos of Scotland’s largest freshwater loch.

Glen Coe & Rannoch Moor
Travel through Argyll and Bute into the magical Highlands, crossing Rannoch Moor, Britain’s largest moorland. Enter Glen Coe, where towering peaks and waterfalls set the stage for the dramatic story of the Glencoe Massacre. Harry Potter fans will recognise the landscape from the Hogwarts battle scenes.

Fort William
Stop for lunch in Fort William, the gateway to the Great Glen. Wander along Loch Linnhe, explore local cafés, and take in views of the Nevis Range before heading north.

Glenfinnan Viaduct & Loch Shiel
Arrive at the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, one of the most magical locations in the Scottish Highlands and the famous Harry Potter filming location where the Jacobite Steam Train, the real-life Hogwarts Express, crosses the viaduct. Stroll to the panoramic viewpoint, admire the spectacular scenery and, when in operation, watch the steam train pass overhead*. Continue to the peaceful shores of Loch Shiel and visit the Glenfinnan Monument, where Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard in 1745.

(*Please note: Our tour is scheduled to see the Jacobite Steam Train crossing the Glenfinnan Viaduct; however, as the train is operated by a separate company, we cannot guarantee it will run or be on time. This service is seasonal, operating from until October 2026, but delays and cancellations may occur due to factors beyond our control. On days that the train is not in operation, you will still have the opportunity to visit the viaduct.)

Loch Lomond & Luss Village
On the return journey, drive along the western shore of Loch Lomond, the largest loch in Scotland, and stop at Luss, a historic conservation village. Enjoy a leisurely walk along the loch’s edge before heading back to Glasgow.

Return to Glasgow
Arrive in Glasgow in the evening after a day packed with history, film magic, and breathtaking scenery.
