The Belmond Royal Scotsman is Scotland's own luxury train, offering two- to seven-day tours through the Scottish Highlands. Experience the magical atmosphere of a five-star Scottish country house hotel on rails. The train carries a maximum of 36 passengers, who enjoy exquisite all-inclusive luxury with great food, wine, and service, as well as some very well-chosen excursions off the train. Visit a whisky distillery, play golf in the Highlands, or venture into stormy waters for rafting or coasteering before retiring to a luxurious cabin with panoramic windows.
The luxurious cabins are a welcome retreat after a day in the Highlands. Each cabin is richly inlaid and features a private bathroom and dreamy beds dressed in soft Scottish wool and tartans. Depending on the cabin, an elegant dressing table and wardrobe provide additional comfort. Let your mind wander as you gaze out through the large panoramic windows. The cabins are available with single or double beds, and the connecting cabins are particularly suitable for families traveling together.
Exceptional Scottish produce is served at every meal in the mahogany-paneled dining car. A selection of fine wines, liqueurs, and malt whiskies is the ideal accompaniment. Feast on the best of Scottish land and sea; rich game, seasonal seafood, and wild salmon are regular highlights on the opulent menu. Fortify yourself with classic kedgeree or enjoy steamed Scottish mussels after a day outdoors—chef Mark Tamburrini and his dedicated team have numerous culinary surprises in store for you, allowing you to experience Scottish cuisine from a whole new perspective.
Relax in one of the most unique spas Scotland has to offer. Two tranquil treatment rooms at Bamford Haybarn Spa provide an oasis of calm, while an exceptional range of natural therapies revitalize your body and mind. Your journey through the Highlands is complemented by a range of unique excursions – from exciting activities such as white water rafting and coasteering to unforgettable evenings gazing at the starry night sky. You can also visit a genuine Scottish whisky distillery or play a round of golf in the Highlands.
