Glencoe was the setting to one of the most infamous periods in Scottish history, the Glencoe massacre which took place in 1692. The beautiful scenery is a visitors must see. We stop at Glencoe Visitor Centre to allow time to learn more about the history of the glen. The centre is also home to the turf house where you‘ll be able to see what life must have been like for the 500-600 strong community that lived here in 17th century Glencoe. We travel through the glen twice (morning and evening) and stop for photos and to take in the landscape while we are there.

In the shadows of Ben Nevis lies the holiday town of Fort William. We travel through the town in the morning to join the romantic 'Road to the Isles'

We have plenty of time to visit Glenfinnan as the views here are simply spectacular. You will see the 21 arches of the majestic Glenfinnan Viaduct curve through the glen in a scene immortalised as the route to Harry Potter’s Hogwarts (from April 2- Oct we aim to reach the viaduct in time to see the Jacobite Steam Train crossing over). The Glenfinnan Monument lies at the head of Loch Shiel and was erected in 1815, to honour the Jacobites who fought and died in the cause of Bonnie Prince Charlie. There will also be time to pay entrance to visit the monument if you wish. (Please Note: The Jacobite steam train will not operate between 1st and 5th September 2025.)

After travelling back through Glencoe & Rannoch moor, our last stop of the evening will be within the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, where you can enjoy an early evening refreshment before our return to Glasgow.
