Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital, is a city filled with rich history, stunning architecture, and a gateway to some of the country’s most iconic landmarks. Stravaigin Scotland invites you to embark on a journey beyond the city to explore the breathtaking landscapes and historic gems that surround Edinburgh. Whether you're a history buff, a fan of the Outlander series, or someone who simply loves a good adventure, we have the perfect tour for you.
Outlander Tours: Step into the World of Claire and Jamie
For fans of Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander, our tours from Edinburgh bring the beloved TV series to life. Step into the shoes of Claire and Jamie as we take you to some of the most famous filming locations around Scotland. From the dramatic ruins of Blackness Castle, featured as the formidable Fort William, to the quaint and picturesque village of Culross, doubling as Cranesmuir, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped through the stones into 18th-century Scotland. Other highlights include Doune Castle (Castle Leoch) and the mystical Callanish Standing Stones, which inspired the Craigh na Dun stones from the series.
Rosslyn Chapel & Edinburgh Castle: A Historic Journey
No trip to Edinburgh is complete without a visit to the magnificent Edinburgh Castle. Perched on an ancient volcanic rock, this iconic fortress is a symbol of Scotland’s turbulent past. From the Crown Jewels to the Stone of Destiny, the castle is brimming with history, making it a must-see for anyone visiting the city.
But why stop there? With Stravaigin Scotland, you can also explore the enchanting Rosslyn Chapel. Just a short drive from the city, this 15th-century chapel is steeped in mystery and legend. Known for its intricate carvings and its connection to the Knights Templar, Rosslyn Chapel has fascinated visitors for centuries. Combine this tour with a visit to Edinburgh Castle for a day of wonder and discovery.
Day Trips to Glencoe, Oban, and Kilchurn Castle
For those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, our tours to Glencoe, Oban, and Kilchurn Castle offer a perfect retreat into the Scottish Highlands. Glencoe, with its awe-inspiring mountains and tragic history, is one of the most beautiful and haunting places in Scotland. Wander through its rugged landscapes and hear the tale of the infamous Glencoe Massacre of 1692.
Continue your journey to the charming coastal town of Oban, the “Gateway to the Isles,” where you can sample the local seafood, stroll along the waterfront, and gaze out towards the Hebridean islands.
