Joined by a local historian, you’ll be regaled with tales of this Highland gem and discover the story of Bonnie Prince Charlie. You’ll also catch sight of the mighty Glenfinnan Viaduct, made famous by the Harry Potter film series. Afterwards, relax and enjoy a hearty cream tea at the Glenfinnan House Hotel.
