What to expect on a Glencoe tour

1/5

Start in Edinburgh or Glasgow

Your adventure begins as you meet your guide and fellow travellers at your departure point. Board a comfortable, air-conditioned coach, the perfect way to begin one of the most exciting Glencoe tours. Your expert driver-guide will set the scene for the day with live commentary and stories about the region.

Loch Ness

A common inclusion for most Glencoe tours, arrive at Loch Ness, with time to soak in the views. Your guide will bring the landscapes to life with tales of the famous Loch Ness Monster. Enjoy free time to walk around and take in the dramatic views of the historic ruins of Urquhart Castle overlooking Loch Ness.

Glenfinnan Viaduct

Some tours take you to the famous Glenfinnan Viaduct, an iconic location for any Harry Potter fan. You'll have time for photos and to soak in the incredible views before the scenic return journey to Edinburgh, concluding a packed day of discovery.

Multi-day tours

See more on a two or three-day tour for diving deeper into the history of the Highlands. Explore significant sites like the Culloden Battlefield and the ruins of Ruthven Barracks. Or spend the day immersed in the mystical Isle of Skye and Eilean Donan Castle. You can also opt for a tasting at a local whiskey distillery.

Things to know before booking Glencoe tours

Duration: Most tours are full-day guided trips, so be prepared for an early start and a full day of travel. There are also multi-day tours that provide more time to explore Glencoe and the wider Highlands.
What’s included: The tour includes luxury air-conditioned coach transfers from Edinburgh, ensuring a comfortable journey. Your expert driver-guide will provide live commentary, and the tour also offers digital translations in multiple languages for added convenience. However, entry fees to attractions and meals are not included in most tours.
Accommodation: For multi-day tours, overnight accommodation is an important factor to consider, and is an additional upgrade available.

Why just see one glen when you can conquer the whole region?

For the ultimate Highland adventure, the three-day guided tour is a standout among Glencoe tours. Drive through Glencoe and learn about the valley's history, spend a day in the Isle of Skye, and visit Eilean Donan Castle and the legendary Loch Ness before returning to Edinburgh.
