Today, our coach will transport you to the bustling fishing port of Mallaig, before boarding a diesel train for a picturesque journey back to Fort William. Along the way, enjoy the breathtaking scenery of Loch Nevis, Loch Morar and of course the majestic Ben Nevis. This tranquil journey also crosses the iconic 21-arched Glenfinnan Viaduct, renowned from the Harry Potter films, which offers stunning views of the Jacobite Monument. The rest of the day can be spent in the Highland Town of Fort William.
