Begin your day by heading north from Edinburgh to Inverness. Inverness will serve as the hub for your full-day exploration of the legendary Loch Ness, renowned for its mythical monster. Your comprehensive itinerary includes a captivating boat cruise on the lake and a guided walk along the shore led by an expert guide.
Following the scenic boat ride, your guide will guide you to the remnants of the 13th-century Urquhart Castle, perched above Loch Ness. Once a formidable medieval fortress, Urquhart Castle witnessed centuries of conflict, with control oscillating between the Scots and English until government troops garrisoned during the Jacobite uprisings detonated it.
While the castle now stands in ruins, your family can explore its remains, capturing photos of the castle situated on a rocky promontory with panoramic views of Loch Ness. Visit notable structures within the castle, including the Great Hall that hosted medieval banquets, and marvel at the full-size trebuchet, a colossal catapult used in castle sieges.
Your guide will lead you along the less-traveled yet equally enchanting south roads around the loch. Even if the elusive monster doesn’t make an appearance, rest assured your guide will animate the region with captivating tales steeped in folklore and history. Conclude your day by returning to Inverness.
Today, you and your family will transfer from Inverness to the picturesque fishing village of Mallaig. Brace yourself for an unparalleled railway experience aboard “the greatest railway journey in the world,” the Jacobite steam train. This remarkable roundtrip covers 84 miles (135 km) between Mallaig and Fort William, traversing through the stunning landscapes of the western Highlands.
As you depart Mallaig, the journey unfolds amidst breathtaking scenery. Passing near Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain at 4,413 feet (1,345 m), the route continues alongside Loch Morar, the deepest freshwater loch in Britain, and the River Morar, the shortest river in Britain. Feast your eyes on additional remarkable sights such as Loch Eil, the pristine beaches near Arisaig, and the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct.
Glenfinnan Viaduct, built at the turn of the 20th century, stretches 1,000 feet (304 m) amid majestic peaks, violet heathlands, and the serene waters of Loch Shiel. Notably, both Glenfinnan and the Jacobite locomotive featured prominently in the “Harry Potter” films, thanks to their stunning backdrop.
The final destination is Fort William, nestled in the shadow of Ben Nevis. Upon arrival, check into your hotel and take a leisurely stroll to explore the vibrant atmosphere. Discover shops, pubs, restaurants, and indulge in some traditional fish and chips. Later, retreat to your hotel for a relaxing evening.
Regrettably, every wonderful adventure reaches its conclusion. In the morning, you’ll make your way back to Edinburgh and proceed to the airport for your scheduled return flight. As the Scots say, “haste ye back”—you are always welcome here!
