Activity itinerary

Loch Ness Region (Pass by)
Your Glenfinnan tour departs Inverness and travels south, hugging the shoreline of Loch Ness for our first stop of the day, Urquhart Castle.
Urquhart Castle
  • 15m
Your Glenfinnan tour departs Inverness and travels south, hugging the shoreline of Loch Ness for our first stop of the day, Urquhart Castle. Enjoy a short time to take photos at this iconic location, with great views over Scotland's most famous loch, and perhaps even spot Nessie!
Glenfinnan Viaduct
  • 1h
Our tour moves on, stopping for the highlight of our day; the Glenfinnan Viaduct. Surrounded by mountains of the shores of Loch Shiel, Glenfinnan Monument symbolises one of the most important events in Scottish history; the 1745 Jacobite Uprising. We spend approximately one hour at the Monument; plenty of time to learn the history of the Jacobites, and take your iconic photos of the famous bridge. The location is not only famous for the Harry Potter bridge; Loch Shiel was the location of the 'Black Lake'; see if you can spot a 'grindylow' under the surface causing mischief! It's also the setting for Buckbeak's beautiful flight, scenes from the Triwizard Tournament and also the stunning loch where Hogwarts is based.
Mallaig
  • 1h
From Glenfinnan and its spectacular viaduct and monument, we journey westwards to Mallaig on the 'road to the Isles', or 'Rathad nan Eilean'. The area was run by the Clan Donald, and is said to have some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, with sandy beaches, dramatic hills and unforgettable sea views, it's one not to be missed! At the end of the road, we reach Mallaig, a scenic fishing port. Mallaig comes from the old Norse, 'Mel Vik', meaning a sand dune bay. Spend time here for lunch, perhaps sample some of the local seafood, and enjoy the sea views.
Fort Augustus
  • 20m
After Mallaig, our Harry Potter tour travels eastwards, to Loch Ness and stops at Fort Augustus. Enjoy refreshments here, with beautiful views over the loch,
Commando Monument
  • 15m
Stop for photos of the Commando Memorial, located at Spean Bridge.
The Falls of Foyers
  • 20m
We visit the Falls of Foyers, an impressive waterfall that runs through to Loch Ness. Don't forget your camera for this beautiful stop!
Dores
  • 20m
Our final stop of the day is at Dores Beach, the most northerly point of Loch Ness. The beach provides a great viewpoint to the loch; from here you can see all the way down Loch Ness - ideal for spotting signs of Nessie!
