Description

Get first-hand experiences at some of the sets in the Harry Potter film series. Travel through Scotland on a bus to these locations, and conclude your tour with a visit to Glenfinnan Visitor Center. Pass some of the key film locations from all 8 Harry Potter movies as you lose yourself in the wilderness of Rannoch Moor. Discover the volcanic glen from 'The Prisoner of Azkaban' en route to Fort William, where you will board the Jacobite steam train (as seen in the Harry Potter films as the Hogwarts's Express) Cross the Victorian-era Glenfinnan Viaduct and get views of Loch Shiel from the 'Chamber of Secrets.' See the site of the Triwizard Tournament from 'The Goblet of Fire' and continue to the fishing village of Mallaig to get some time for lunch.  You will board the coach from Mallaig where we will have a stop at the Glenfinnan Visitor Center for an excellent chance to photograph the steam train returning across the viaduct before you return to Edinburgh. *Please note this tour is not exclusively 'Harry Potter' related. * Stopping at Glenfinnan is subject to parking being available
