We are delighted to present a three-day weekend break to the Highlands of Scotland at this most dramatic and beautiful time of year – The journey is over the world-famous West Highland line, featuring some of the most spectacular scenery in Scotland as we cross magnificent bridges and viaducts travelling high into the mountains offering views of tumbling waterfalls and peaceful lochs.

Hotels: No overnight accommodation is included allowing you the freedom and flexibility to arrange your own hotels in Oban. For further advice and a list of recommended hotels please email our office.

Mobility: This tour is not suitable for guests requiring the use of a wheelchair or with severe mobility issues as the platforms at some remote stations in the highlands are much shorter than our train, low, or accessible only by a footbridge or steps.
