Curved, colorful, with little houses that look hand-painted and an atmosphere that <strong>truly recalls Diagon Alley.<\/strong> In fact, this is where you\u2019ll also find the Museum Context, the famous shop dedicated to the world of Harry Potter. Even if you don\u2019t buy anything, it\u2019s magical to visit. If you walk up the side alleys, you\u2019ll find an elevated level that runs along the street from above\u2014 from there, the view is stunning. On Victoria Street<strong> you\u2019ll also find The Elephant House, the caf\u00e9 where J.K. Rowling wrote the first chapters of Harry Potter.<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>You can then continue along the Royal Mile: the heart of the Old Town, and visit St Giles\u2019 Cathedral<\/strong>, one of the most beautiful and historic churches in the city. Entry is free, but you can leave a donation if you wish.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>At the end of the Royal Mile, you can also visit Edinburgh Castle. Make sure to book well in advance! You can find the official ticket <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghcastle.scot\/plan-your-visit\/tickets\/\">website HERE<\/a> with tickets at around \u20ac24 per person. We didn\u2019t go inside because many guides, as well as people we know, advised against it, saying it\u2019s not particularly atmospheric.<br \/><strong>Remember to step into the courtyard of New College for an amazing photo!<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Then head toward Grassmarket, a charming square with pubs, small shops, and views of the castle. Here, don\u2019t miss one of my absolute favorite spots to see Edinburgh from above: The Vennel Steps.

We were there years ago, and even today this part of the trip remains one of our most beautiful memories.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>How to get from Edinburgh to Fort William<\/h2><p>You can reach Fort William in several ways:<strong> by train or bus, which take about three and a half hours, or you can rent a car!<\/strong><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>At the time, we took the train to Glasgow, had a quick walk around, and then continued on to Fort William. I\u2019ll admit it: Glasgow didn\u2019t really win me over at first impression.<br \/>But the truly special part begins on the next train: a journey through incredible landscapes, lochs, valleys, and mountains that change color every few minutes. An absolute spectacle.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Once we arrived in Fort William, after leaving our luggage in the room, we took a quick walk around town and stopped for lunch at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/crannoghighland\/?hl=it\">Crannog Seafood Restaurant<\/a>, a harbor-side restaurant with a beautiful view over the water.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Right in front of the restaurant,<strong> the Crannog Cruise also departs\u2014a boat trip that takes you out on Loch Linnhe for about 90 minutes.<\/strong><br \/>During the cruise, there\u2019s a chance to <strong>spot seals (we saw them!)<\/strong>, and inside there\u2019s a small heated area where you can grab something warm. Highly recommended, even in summer\u2014it\u2019s always cold.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>The following day we were supposed to go on an excursion to Glencoe, but the weather was terrible. A bit disappointed, we asked a taxi driver to take us to a nearby village. When he realized we loved photography, he decided to personally take us to the most beautiful panoramic spots in the Highlands. He waited while we took photos and told us anecdotes about the area.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>The Jacobite Train<\/h2><p>Speaking of Harry Potter, I told him how much I dreamed of seeing<strong> the famous Jacobite Steam Train<\/strong>, but that unfortunately it was impossible to find tickets online (they sell out even a year in advance).<br \/>And he, with incredible calm, said: \u201cNo problem, we\u2019ll sort it out.\u201d He took us to the train depot, spoke with the staff, and then explained what to do: \u201cGo straight to the ticket barriers at Fort William station. Every day they sell a very small number of tickets directly on the train. Get in line now.\u201d<br \/>And that\u2019s exactly what we did: two very long hours of waiting, but in the end we boarded the most iconic train in Scotland. The interior was exactly how I imagined it: warm, vintage, full of details.<\/p><p><br \/>During the journey, they pass by with a trolley selling Chocolate Frogs and all kinds of candies, and there\u2019s also a small souvenir shop.<\/p><p><strong>The most emotional moment?<\/strong><br \/><strong>Crossing the Glenfinnan Viaduct,<\/strong> supported by 21 arches\u2014exactly the scene we all remember from the films.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>The train then stops for about an hour in the lovely village of Mallaig: take a walk, grab an ice cream (delicious, I swear), and enjoy the little harbor.<\/p><p><br \/><strong>To buy Jacobite Train tickets in advance:<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/westcoastrailways.co.uk\/jacobite\/fare-prices\">https:\/\/westcoastrailways.co.uk\/jacobite\/fare-prices<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"penci-section penci-disSticky penci-structure-30 elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-dfa573f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"dfa573f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"penci-ercol-33 penci-ercol-order-1 penci-sticky-sb penci-sidebarSC   elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8363648\" data-id=\"8363648\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5420d61 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5420d61\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"451\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.anxhelaisaj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/fort-william-edimburgo.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29551 lazyload\" alt=\"\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.anxhelaisaj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/fort-william-edimburgo.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.anxhelaisaj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/fort-william-edimburgo-300x271.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px;
