Tour Highlights

Our Outlander tours from Edinburgh are packed with unforgettable moments. Here are just a few of the highlights:

  • Midhope Castle (Lallybroch): Step into Jamie Fraser’s ancestral home, Lallybroch. This picturesque 16th-century tower house, known as Midhope Castle in real life, is one of the most iconic Outlander filming locations. As you walk through the grounds, you’ll almost hear the echoes of the past and feel the presence of the Frasers.

  • Doune Castle (Castle Leoch): Explore the formidable Doune Castle, which stands in for Castle Leoch, the seat of Clan MacKenzie. This medieval stronghold has a rich history that predates the show, and it’s sure to leave you awestruck.

  • Blackness Castle (Fort William): Known as the "Ship that Never Sailed" due to its unique shape, Blackness Castle served as the notorious Fort William in Outlander. Standing on the windswept shores of the Firth of Forth, it’s easy to imagine the drama that unfolded within its walls.

  • Culross (Cranesmuir): Wander through the charming village of Culross, which doubles as Cranesmuir in the series. With its cobbled streets and whitewashed houses, Culross offers a glimpse into Scotland’s past, making it the perfect backdrop for Outlander’s 18th-century scenes.

  • Linlithgow Palace (Wentworth Prison): Visit the imposing ruins of Linlithgow Palace, which Outlander fans will recognize as the site of Jamie’s harrowing imprisonment at Wentworth. The palace, once a royal residence, is steeped in history and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
