Edinburgh Outlander Tour
Description
We'll meet at 60 High Street and get ready for a day exploring the filming locations of the famous series Outlander. Leave the city behind and head deep into the Scottish countryside, embracing the scenery that inspired the historical time travel TV show.
The first stop on the tour will be Midhope Castle, where you'll stop to take photos of the site known as "Lallybroch Castle" in the series.
Our next stop will be outside the medieval Doune Castle. Fans might recognize it as "Castle Leoch" from Outlander, the residence of the Mackenzie clan. But this was not the only production made here. This building also appears in Game of Thrones and Monty Python!
Next, we'll head to the Kingdom of Fife, an area of great historical importance and home to Scotland's former monarchs. We'll stop for lunch in Royal Burgh of Culross, the fictional village of Cranesmuir, where Claire is accused of witchcraft. This charming village is the best example of typical Scottish 17th and 18th-century architecture.
With our batteries recharged, we'll continue the tour to the town of Falkland. In Outlander, the town represents the Inverness of the 1940s, as it has more than 28 buildings from this era.
Ready for the last stop? Next, we'll head to Blackness Castle, renamed Fort William in the series. Then, after a full day of Outlander filming locations, we'll return to Edinburgh and drop you off at the Edinburgh bus station.
Important
Please note that Doune Castle will be closed from May 27 to June 4 for the recording of episodes. On those days, we will visit other sites, such as the exterior of Linlithgow Castle.
