If you’re a fan of the Outlander series, you know how much the stunning landscapes and historic locations in Scotland play a pivotal role in bringing the story to life. At Stravaigin Scotland, we’re excited to offer an immersive Outlander Day Tour from Edinburgh, where you’ll have the opportunity to step into the world of Claire and Jamie, visiting some of the most iconic sites from the beloved series.
A Journey Through Time and Fiction
Our Outlander Day Tour is more than just a sightseeing trip – it’s a journey into the heart of 18th-century Scotland. Starting from Edinburgh, we whisk you away on a day filled with adventure, history, and the magic of Outlander. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or simply curious to explore Scotland’s rich heritage, this tour has something for everyone.
Highlights of the Tour
1. Midhope Castle (Lallybroch)
The tour begins with a visit to Midhope Castle, the real-life Lallybroch, Jamie Fraser’s ancestral home. As you walk the grounds, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped straight into the pages of Diana Gabaldon’s novels. The castle’s rugged charm and peaceful surroundings make it a perfect photo opportunity for fans wanting to capture the spirit of Outlander.
2. Blackness Castle (Fort William)
Next, we stop at Blackness Castle, which portrayed Fort William in the show. This formidable fortress, perched on the Firth of Forth, offers a stunning backdrop for fans to relive some of the series’ more intense moments. Take a moment to admire the castle’s dramatic architecture and enjoy the panoramic views over the water.
3. Doune Castle (Castle Leoch)
Fans will instantly recognize Doune Castle as the imposing Castle Leoch, the seat of Clan MacKenzie. This impressive medieval stronghold has not only been featured in Outlander but also in other famous productions like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Explore the castle’s grand halls and winding staircases, imagining yourself part of the MacKenzie clan.
4. Linlithgow Palace (Wentworth Prison)
Our next stop takes us to the haunting Linlithgow Palace, which doubled as the infamous Wentworth Prison in the series. The palace, with its rich royal history, is a fascinating site in its own right, but for Outlander fans, it’s a chance to reflect on the dramatic scenes set here and the trials faced by our beloved characters.
5. Falkland (Inverness)
The charming village of Falkland stands in for 1940s Inverness, where Claire and Frank stayed in the first season. Stroll through the quaint streets, visit the Bruce Fountain (where Claire first glimpsed Jamie’s ghost), and take in the atmosphere of this beautiful town, which perfectly captures the essence of the show’s early episodes.
