Wee Dram

£610 per person - 1 night

As the name suggests, this is a rewarding way to experience The Royal Scotsman for those with less time to spare. Your journey takes you across the Forth Railway Bridge to Perth for a private view of Glamis, the seat of the Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, and childhood home of the late HM The Queen Mother, before travelling through the Kingdom of Fife to Stirling where you stable overnight and enjoy a formal dinner and entertainment before returning to Edinburgh the next morning. 

Highland Tour

£1740 - two nights

There is simply no better way to experience the drama and wild beauty of the Scottish Highlands. Head north on the Highland line through Dunkeld and Blair Atholl to Inverness, passing Culloden, site of the 1746 battle, on the way. This journey is ideal for those who like outdoor activity - at Rothiemurchus Estate for example, there will be the opportunity to try your hand at clay pigeon shooting, venturing out with the Estate's rangers on a Highland safari or just enjoying a Highland walk.

Western Tour

£2530 per person - three nights

The West Highland line is stunning, one of the World's most scenic railway journeys. As we travel through the dramatic backdrop of Rannoch Moor to Arisaig, The Royal Scotsman's stately pace allows for plenty of time to reflect and fully appreciate the beauty outside your window. Heading south, we cross to the Isle of Bute for a private view of Mount Stuart, Britain's most spectacular Victorian gothic house. The weather can be magical in the Western Isles and, when it is, we can never resist stopping for a walk on one of the glorious west coast beaches.

Classic Tour

£3380 per person - four nights

The quintessential Royal Scotsman experience and certainly one of their most popular journeys. After following the east coast up to Keith you will head over to the picturesque west coast village of Plockton, before making your way to Inverness and then south to Perth. A private ceilidh at Strathisla and your personal invitation to visit Ballindalloch, with its magnificient house and gardens, are just two of the highlights. Along the way there is time and opportunity for golf, seal spotting aboard Callum's boat, or a guided walk along the Caledonian pine forest trails.
