Fabulous experience, I want to do it again.

Go for this one, amazing locations of Outalder (and other shows) . Our kind driver brought all the fun and knew a lot about the scenes filmed at each location. Plenty of time to look around each site, enjoy the scenery and of course take the perfect photos.

Lauren was AMAZING! She was knowledgeable and added so much humor. She handled a situation with my husband with concern and respect for him which was so appreciated.

Outlander Filming Locations Tour from Edinburgh

An absolute MUST for any fans of Diana Gabaldon’s OUTLANDER series. This has been on my bucket-list for some time now, and it certainly didn’t disappoint! It’s a full day’s coach tour (9hrs) which stops off at many of the locations where the TV series was filmed including: Midhope Castle (Lallybrock), Blackness Castle (Fort William), Linlithgow Palace (Wentworth Prison), Doune Castle (Castle Leoch) and the stunningly beautiful village of Culross (Crainsmuir). Our coach was relatively small (16 people), clean and fully air conditioned. Seat belts are compulsory in Scotland. Our driver Jack was absolutely incredible! A true Outlander fan and a history major to boot … so as well as getting the low-down on all things relating to the show, we also got to learn lots of other historical facts about the places we visited and passed through. Passing the Kelpies on the motorway was pretty spectacular too! Highly recommended … in fact I plan to do it all over agsin when my sister in law visits from Canada!
