Today i'm taking one of the world’s most luxurious trains, the famous Royal Scotsman in First Class. Millie & I will spend five days onboard in a private ensuite bedroom, as we explore the beautiful Scottish highlands. Starting in Edinburgh we'll head North towards Inverness and after stable overnight in a siding, continue on to the Isle of Skye. I'll show you exactly what it's like on this once in a lifetime trip... especially given ticket prices are north of $15,000. This is the first fully documented trip available on YouTube, so join us and find out for real what it's like. From two dining rooms, an observation car with the only outside viewing platform in Europe plus a variety of exciting off train activities like seal spotting and exploring a privately owned castle.

Thanks to my friend Jarvis, for assisting in all the finer details when booking this trip. If you'd like to do something similar please check out his website: theluxurytraveller.com/

    Really cool that this train stops for the overnight. Not only does it ensure better sleep but you don't miss any of the incredible landscapes! Also great that you had these sightseeing breaks to see the seals, taste whisky, and that kind of thing. This is my kind of train excursion May I also point out that Millie is an absolute delight - so glad to see her in this episode
  • you are so lucy brother...i lost many years with drugs.. i am clean since 2014!! i have never been abroad (i am greek)...i lost many years but i hope one day i will start seeing many many countries and people to love and communicate...peace n love man...peace n love, cheers!
  • I'd be on the outdoor observation deck the entire time. A deck chair, pillows, blankets, cheese, warm homemade bread with butter, and a bottle of wine. Heaven.
  • @jgascoine011
    From someone from Scotland $15,000 is just insane. You could do and see so much more and much better things for far far less.

    Im so happy that you posted your meals. I think food is such an important part of culture
  • @davidlaws4119
    Honestly, I am totally speechless! I have watched every vlog of yours & every single one of them is utterly SUPERB, but this is way beyond anything I expected! Living vicariously through your spectacular travel adventures takes one away from the drudgery of daily life & allows you to dream of the possibilities. Your videos beat any travel TV show by a long shot, the outstanding quality of your productions, your scrupulous attention to detail & your commentary & information is par excellence!! THANK YOU for taking us with you!!

    Millie was absolutely the highlight of this video. Stunning scenery but personally, I would have starved on this trip except for the one sea scallop. I do sincerely appreciate all your time and effort to share this experience and I personally take it as a warning to cross train travel in Scotland of my bucket list. Sincerely appreciate you taking the time and effort to give us clear screen shots of the menu. When one is trapped on a train for 5 days food is certainly a priority. Thanks for the time taken to film, edit, and find such amazing background music.
  • This appeared to be the best train journey you've ever reviewed. Don't know why I didn't expect it to be Scotland but it indeed was Scotland.
  • Thank you! I had an 18 month visit to Scotland that covered 1984-85. Absolutely did not see enough! Skied in the Cairngorms, visited Edinburgh, stayed over at Loch Ness and so on. The people were incredible and the views breath taking! The ones you video I like the best are where it takes more than 2 days! Again thanks for showing me travel way out of my budget!
  • I've lived in Dundee for a couple of months 3 years ago for my semester abroad and Ceilidh Dancing was one of my favourite things to do. My flat mate and I went to so many dances. And as a German experiencing Scottish culture that way was the best thing to happen because it was mostly Scots going Ceilidhing. Also vegan Haggis, best food in the world!
  • This was, hands down, the most fantastic trip I've seen ! Not only was the train & its amenities stunning, but all the side excursions were wonderful! I especially loved the dancing on the platform. Was also thrilled that the most beauteous Millie was able to join you! 😍
  • Can we Scottish subscribers be upstanding for several reasons; 1. An extraordinary adventure to and through our breath-taking Scottish Highlands 2. An exceptional video and review of one of the world's greatest train excursions 3. A huge Happy Birthday to the incomparable Trek Trendy Will 4. And a massive Scottish shout out to the extraordinary and beautiful Millie. Both of you are welcome in Scotland anytime.
  • @Natalie-tr2gv
    Good on you Will - your professionalism, attention to detail and friendliness stands out amidst all of these travel vlogs. The videos are very enjoyable to watch for those of us living far away. Keep up the good work.
  • @Bourne1984
    You really have started to master your craft. I’ve been watching you from pretty much the beginning and you are really, genuinely one of the best and most likeable youtube traveler bloggers. Keep up the great work
  • @IvoryJake
    As someone who’s watched nearly every video of yours, this one stands out. An overall amazing experience & you documented it so well. Always looking forward to future adventures 😊
  • Your travel logs have gotten better each year. ❤ Millie was great too see. She is a keeper. I have had to start Dialysis’ and your videos still allow me to travel through your eyes. 😊
