Description

Step into the world of "Outlander" with a guided day trip from Edinburgh, Scotland, visiting some of the series’ most iconic filming locations. This immersive journey takes you to historic castles and picturesque villages that brought the beloved story to life.

Begin your adventure with early morning departure from Edinburgh, traveling in comfort by air-conditioned minibus. Your local guide shares fascinating behind-the-scenes stories and historical insights as you approach Doune Castle, famously known as Castle Leoch in "Outlander" and featured in other popular productions. You can choose to explore the castle’s interior or simply admire its impressive exterior.

Continue your exploration into the ancient Kingdom of Fife, where you’ll wander the cobbled streets of Culross. This well-preserved village stood in for Cranesmuir, offering a glimpse into 17th and 18th-century Scotland and the dramatic moments from the series. Next, visit Falkland, instantly recognizable as 1940s Inverness, with its charming squares and historic buildings.

Your penultimate stop is Blackness Castle, dramatically perched above Blackness Bay and known as the formidable Black Jack Randall’s headquarters. After soaking in the views and snapping memorable photos, relax on the scenic drive back to Edinburgh, reflecting on your day of adventure.

The tour lasts approximately nine hours and is available in several languages. Entry to castles is optional, allowing you to tailor your experience. Book now to secure your spot and relive your favorite "Outlander" moments in real-life Scottish settings!
