Scotland – Fort William

Based in Fort William, in the shadow of the mighty Ben Nevis, this year’s adventures are the best rail journeys in the Scottish Highlands. The Jacobite rail journey from Fort William, through the highlands onto Mallaig is described as one of the greatest in the world. Coupled with this is the stunning train journey from the Kyle of Lochalsh to Dingwall and the chance to spot “Nessie” from the banks of Loch Ness. All in all this extremely popular holiday offers the most amazing scenery the Scottish Highlands has to offer.

The Alexandra Hotel

Part of the very fabric of Fort William since 1876, the Alexandra Hotel provides traditional Scottish hospitality at its best. Situated in a great location everything is close by. This deceptively large hotel boasts 93 bedrooms. Due to the age and nature of the grand old building all bedrooms are individual in size and shape but all have as standard en-suite bathrooms, television, hair dryer, direct dial telephone and tea and coffee facilities and some even have a view of Loch Linnhe

Holiday Itinerary

Day 1 We travel to our overnight stop in the Dumfries area with suitable and interesting stops along the way. Overnight bag required.
Day 2 After breakfast, we head to Fort William via a visit to the banks of the beautiful Loch Lomond
Day 3 Even more spectacular scenery today including Mam Ratagan (weather permitting) and views across to the Five Sisters of Kintail which takes us to the Kyle of Lochalsh for our trip by diesel train on the Kyle Line, a railway which took 27 years to build and is 80 miles long. On reaching Dingwall we have time to stretch our legs before returning to Fort William along the banks of Loch Ness.
Day 4 A free day to explore in and around Fort William or just simply sit and enjoy the stunning scenery.
Day 5 The Jacobite from Fort William to Mallaig is said to be the World’s Greatest Railway Journey with 42 miles behind a classic Steam Train passing over Glenfinnan Viaduct, with brief stops at Scotland’s most westerly station, Scotland’s deepest Loch and shortest river allowing us time in Mallaig.
Day 6 We make our way to our overnight hotel around the Borders area, with a visit to the historic city of Sterling. Overnight bag required.
Day 7 Sadly after breakfast, we leave Scotland and make our way home.
