Itinerary
Midhope Castle
Midhope Castle is your next highlight. Unfortunately, visitors are unable to go inside the castle, but Jamie’s lovely Lallybroch home is still an essential photo opportunity for any fan of the show. Jamie’s family home, Lallybroch, is as lovely as it looks in the show.
Blackness Castle
Blackness Castle entrance included in tour price. The tough-looking castle looks like it could fend off an entire empire. And in Outlander, it impersonates Fort William.
Linlithgow Palace
Next is Linlithgow Palace, the birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots, also known as Wentworth Prison. Here, you can have lunch, explore the town, or wander around the loch.
Doune Castle
*Doune Castle entrance included in tour price. In Outlander, it’s the fictional Castle Leoch. And in reality, it’s a stunning castle with a tall gate house, an impressive great hall, and lovely views of the River Teith.
Culross
Finally, we head to Culross, a virtually unchanged 16th-century village that represents the fictional town of Cranesmuir. You can visit Claire's herb garden, explore the palace, or wander the ancient streets, imagining life 400 years ago.

The ultimate Outlander Day Tour
This was the perfect day. If you’re an Outlander fan, this tour was a dream crime true. We started the morning at Midhope Castle (Lallybroch) which instantly put everyone in the best mood and set an amazing tone for the day. We wrapped up an incredible itinerary at Doune Castke (Castle Leoch) and finished with delicious ice cream in the beautiful village of Culross (Cranesmuir). The pacing of the tour was spot-on. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to explore each location, take photos, and enjoy a relaxing lunch. A massive thank you to Rachel, our wonderful driver and tour guide. She was fantastic, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience seamless. I cannot recommend this tour enough.
