Description

On this tour you will need to be an early riser, there is a lot of mileage to cover (324 miles).

Leaving Edinburgh we would be travelling up north towards Glencoe, in this area we would visit places which were used for background shots from Prisioner of Azkaban.

Then we would go to see an amazing loch used as a stand-in for Hogwarts lake featured in Prisioner of Azhaban and The Half-blood Prince.

Remember the Victorian railway viaduct first seen in Chamber of Secrets and also the place where Harry encounters a Dementor for the very first time in Prisoner of Azkaban when the Hogwarts Express stops at the bridge? Your guide will take you there : ).

On this tour you have to be able to walk up some hills and boggy ground. We will do safely but you need to be reasonably fit for that : ).

The walks would not be longer than 15 minutes each but 2 of them are steep and boggy. Walking shoes (preferably waterproof) and raincoat advised. Scotland rains a lot!

This tour covers a lot of the highlands if you are quick on your feet and you are not running out of time, your guide might show other attractions which are on the route that you are travelling.
