Imagine the Hogwarts Express popping out of nowhere as you drive…

Lucky for our guide , the Jacobite Steam Train made a magical appearance on tour a few days ago. While Sophie had to keep her eyes on the road, she got one of our guests to record this moment for her ✨🚂

Remember you can take a ride on the train itself on our Jacobite Steam Train day tours from Edinburgh and Inverness. Also available on our 3-Day Isle of Skye tour from Inverness and our 8-Day Orkney, NC509 & Skye tour from Edinburgh.
