What to expect

  1. Midhope Castle
    20m · Admission ticket not included
    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.
  2. Blackness Castle
    1h · Admission ticket included
    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.
  3. Linlithgow Palace
    1h 15m · Admission ticket not included
    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.
  4. Doune Castle
    1h · Admission ticket included
    *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.
  5. Culross
    1h
    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.
