Overview

Begin your journey at Midhope Castle, perhaps better known as ‘Lallybroch’ for our Outlander fans. Follow the steps of Jamie and Claire as you walk the courtyard.

From here, your guide will take you to Blackness Castle, which was the stronghold of Jack Randall, before having lunch within the historic walls of Linlithgow Palace, which was the fictional facade of ‘Wentworth Prison’.

Continuing your journey northward, discover the regal splendour of Doune Castle, or ‘Castle Leoch’, where the Mackenzie clan resided - and was also the backdrop for Monty Python in the Holy Grail.

Finally, you’ll visit the charming village of Culross with its cobbled streets and Cranesmuir architecture, before heading back to Glasgow.

Let us take the stress out of travel as you escape fixed itineraries and crowded buses. Sit back, relax and enjoy your tour which includes;

• A Convenient Door-to-Door Service from your hotel
