What travelers are saying
Excellent!!
We had a FANTASTIC time on this tour! We got to explore and dive deep into some of the locations. However, confirm your itinerary. We didn’t visit three locations that are listed here and was a tad disappointed… but the operator made up for it with his history retelling!
Jillian was a fantastic tour guide! We not only saw Outlander filming sites but we were given a good amount of history to help further understand the Jacobites and what caused the uprising. I would very highly recommend this tour!!
We loved this tour in Scotland. The guide was knowledgeable and we enjoyed visiting several beautiful locations in the Scotist countryside. My kids (11 & 13) also had fun on the tour.
Jacobite Steam train!!! Loved this, got great photos, great people on the train, wonderful way to see breathtaking scenery Outlander filming sites, Fakland in Fife shop gave us a backstory of the filming (animated shop owner talked so long we were late for the bus!), pastries/sweets and tea everywhere; we re-enacted a scene from Outlander where Jamie's ghost looks up at the window at Clare (!); Culross amazing but not enough time to fully explore (we got hung up looking at gravestones and wandering down moss covered "closes" and missed touring the palace!).
