  Super fun. Especially if you’re a Harry Potter fan. You see lots of the film locations and we saw the train in famous spots as well as getting to ride it.

• A fascinating coach tour to a disappointing destination.

  To be honest, the moments on the bus with Brendan (or Brandon I don't know anymore) were a thousand times more fun than those spent in the Jacobite. An old, stinking train whose smoke suffocates the lungs, we wonder why we pay so much for travel. Listen to me, there is NOTHING reminiscent of Hogwarts Express, no compartment, blue seats, NOT red, some goodies that are found everywhere else, it is NOT worth it. A picture in front of the train or on the Glennfinnan is more than enough. Even the view is spoiled by the dirt of the windows. There is NO effort to immerse yourself in the world of Harry Potter except one or two comments from the controllers to tell you once “watch out Dumbledore’s grave is on the right” that’s the only time I felt the effort. No bierraubere but a hot water chocolate with absolutely infamous glitter, in short it is a disaster. Everyone was half asleep so boring the show was. Plus it lasts two hours. HOWEVER... I have an excellent memory of that day. Brendan our driver was funny, his continuous comments kept us busy throughout the loooong round trip. And thanks to him, I felt the magic working, we saw by bus far more locations of HARRY POTTER than with the train. Brendan is full of cultural references that he is happy to share. You come out rich. So I highly recommend this activity. Especially not for that horrible Jacobite but for the bus trip.

  The highlands where amazing and the scenery breathtaking, especially for Harry Potter fans. The train ride was an ordinary ride, we expected it to be a bit more magical, however an overall enjoyable day.

  Fantastic trip to the Highlands. Especially enjoyed the steam train ride. Would recommend this trip adults and youngster whether you are a Harry Potter fan or not. The sheer beauty of the place is unbelievable. The tour guide was both delightful and knowledgeable. Her comments added to much to the overall to the experience.
