Traveler Tips
- "One word of advice about the train ride: sit on the right side to get a better view." See review
- "It is a lot of time in a bus but the castles and the scenery were worth it." See review
- "Isle of Skye and highlands were breathtaking (great weather during a heat wave too) However I would skip the "Hogawarts express" It looks cool on the outside so if you can catch it in the stations, take pics there." See review
