Itinerary - 2 Night Luxury Holiday by Rail

Day 1

Boarding the Royal Scotsman

On arrival in Edinburgh you board the famous Royal Scotsman. The Royal Scotsman departs Edinburgh Waverley Station in the early afternoon and travels north to the ‘Fair City’ of Perth. Relax and enjoy afternoon tea as The Royal Scotsman continues on the Highland line through Dunkeld, Pitlochry and Blair Atholl with its imposing castle.

The rolling hills of Perthshire are replaced by more dramatic peaks and valleys as The Royal Scotsman enters the Highlands. You disembark at Dalwhinnie where you get to sample the ‘gentle spirit’ of the glen at one of the highest distilleries in Scotland.

Return to The Royal Scotsman at the peaceful Highland village of Boat of Garten on the private Strathspey Railway. Relax and enjoy dinner, followed by entertainment in the Observation Car.

Day 2

After breakfast, you travel the short distance by coach to Rothiemurchus Estate in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park. Choose from a number of activities including clay pigeon-shooting, fishing or a guided tour of the Estate with one of the Park Rangers.

Afterwards, enjoy a warm welcome from your hosts as refreshments are served in their hunting lodge and you discover some of the rich history of this family-run estate. Return to the train in Aviemore for lunch before disembarking at Carrbridge to visit Culloden Battlefield, site of the last major battle fought on British soil on 16th April 1746.

From Nairn on the Moray Firth, travel east towards Keith. As the track rejoins the coast, enjoy some spectacular scenery on the way south through Aberdeenshire and Angus. Dinner is served as you travel towards Dundee.

Day 3

Depart the Royal Scotsman

Breakfast is served as The Royal Scotsman leaves Dundee and travels south through Fife. You cross the magnificent Forth Railway Bridge before arriving in Edinburgh Waverley Station, where your journey ends.

Cabins
The Royal Scotsman consists of sixteen twin and four single State Cabins. Each cabin is beautifully designed and is fitted out in rich marquetry.

Other cabin facilities include lower beds, a dressing table, full-length wardrobe, hairdryer, individually controlled heating, cooling ceiling fans, opening windows and a cabin service call button.

Dining
The menus on The Royal Scotsman reflect the many seasonal changes and they are considered amongst the finest in Britain. The dining room is beautifully decorated with mahogany panelling and luxurious fabrics. All meals are prepared with local ingredients, such as Scottish smoked salmon, and served with a variety of wines. There are a range of fine wines to accompany lunch and dinner, and also a range of liqueurs and malt whiskies available.
