Day 2: Rothiemurchus
You wake up to the magnificent landscapes of the Cairngorms. After breakfast, a coach takes you to Rothiemurchus, in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park. On the estate, Ghillie Basan and her son Zeki introduce you to Scottish wildlife and Highland survival skills. The experience continues over a barbecue and a fireside food‑and‑kombucha pairing. In the afternoon, you relax on board as the train glides through the scenery around Inverness and Keith, with the option to visit the beautiful Strathisla Distillery. As the train follows the coast southwards on the way to Dundee, spectacular vistas unfold before you. The day concludes with an elegant gala dinner and some lively jazz music.

More info
There are formal and informal dinners on board the Royal Scotsman, which usually alternate. For the formal dinners, we recommend elegant dress or a kilt appropriate to the high standard. For the “informal” dinners, a jacket with or without a tie is the norm for gentlemen. If the temperature is exceptionally high, you are welcome to attend informal dinners in a polo shirt.
