Outlander Tour - This was an amazing tour! Our tour guide Jamie C. Was brilliant! Most of us were huge fans but some like my daughter were just along for the ride. Jamie made everything so interesting and was so engaging, he turned the non Outlander fans into fans!! He was so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful- I cannot imagine a better tour guide for this kind of trip! So worth the cost of admission!!

Amazing Outlander Tour! - We spent a wonderful day touring the castles from the series Outlander. We saw a total of 4 castles featured in the show, but the highlight was definitely going to Midhope castle! It was emotional! Our tour guide, Jamie C. was super knowledgeable and funny and had a lot of great suggestions for after the tour, for dinner and sights to see! He was fantastic and I highly recommend him as a tour guide and all around great person!

Great tour - This was a great tour! Lots of castles in one day. Do be aware the daily itinerary may change given filming schedules. This happened to us but the replacement activity was excellent. Martin, our tour guide and driver did an excellent job. Friendly, informative, a safe driver, and easy to understand.

I give it five “Alistair”s 😉 - This was such an amazing tour! The locations were amazing and beautiful on their own, even without the added bonus of being Outlander filming locations. Our guide Alistair was super kind, knowledgeable, and easy on the eyes! 10/10 recommend!

Outlander Tour - The Outlander Tour is great! We visited all the castles. We saw some standing stones, just not the ones Claire went through. Our driver/tour guide, Marty was fantastic! He was funny and full of knowledge about Outlander.

This was a good tour with... - This was a good tour with a bit of history, some interesting castles and an Outlander theme. Our guide, James, was great. We listened to Scottish music en route and learned some interesting historical facts. The town of Culross and Blackness Castle were the highlights for us, and Midhope Castle (Lallybroch in the series) was a perfect end to the tour. Even the people on the tour who had not seen the series or read the books enjoyed the tour. It’s a leisurely tour with stops for a tea and lunch, and we did it on a rainy day which worked well. You need to pay at the castles and palaces to enter (or buy a ticket online) but there were no queues. Entrance was around GBP10 per person on average and they were all worth seeing. Thanks to James for a memorable day.
