Who said that Scotland is all about visiting the Highlands and walking alongside the cattle? If you love to party hard with your friends, Scotland has just the perfect destination for you. Visit The Old Forge Pub in Knoydart. One of the remotest pubs in the entire world, here you can drink the classic ale, coming fresh at you from the pub’s microbreweries, or satiate your taste buds with a local delicacy – the langoustines creel – caught fresh and served with deliciousness. And while you indulge in good food and great ale, you can also dance till the sun rises with the pub’s in-house live music. You can also bring your own instrument and delight others! It is the perfect way to kickstart your evening in Scotland.

Witness jaw dropping sights from a Jacobean steam train

When in Scotland, you will find traces of history every now and then. The steam train, once the biggest pioneering machine of the Industrial Age, now continues to dominate the railroads of Scotland. This train will take you on a six-hour journey – it starts at Ben Nevis at Fort WIilliams and takes you along the gorgeous sights of Glenfinnan Viaduct (you will feel like you know this place – and you do, since it has been featured in the Harry Potter films), passing along Morar with its breathtaking silver sands. And ending at a fishing port near the Isle of Skye. And if you want to experience the best – sit on the left side in the train!
