Day 1: Our journey begins with an introduction at Glasgow, Linlithgow or Dumbarton, as we set off on a scenic drive through the Highlands. We’ll stop at the Falls of Falloch and the Kings House Hotel, where you can admire the Highland stags in their natural habitat. Our next stop is Lagangarbh, known as the Wee White House, a perfect spot for capturing the essence of the Highlands.

We continue our exploration of Glencoe by visiting the Three Sisters, three towering peaks that dominate the landscape. At the Glencoe Visitor Centre, you’ll learn about the area’s geological and cultural significance, meet some friendly Highland cows, and explore the traditional Turf House. For Harry Potter fans, we’ll also visit the filming location of Hagrid’s Hut before ending the day with an overnight stay in Fort William.

Day 2: We depart Fort William and head to the Commando Memorial, a tribute to the soldiers of World War II. Next, we visit the Glenfinnan Viaduct, famously known as the Harry Potter bridge, and the landing site of Bonnie Prince Charlie, marking the beginning of the Jacobite Rebellion. We’ll also visit Saint Mary & Saint Finnan Church before continuing to Sligachan and the Fairy Pools. We end the day in Portree, where you’ll stay for the next two nights.

We then explore Lealt Falls and Kilt Rock, known for their dramatic cliffs and cascading waterfalls. In Staffin, we’ll see the famous dinosaur footprints, before heading to the Quiraing, Uig Harbour, and the mystical Fairy Glen.
