Terrific experience.
Vindalanda was amazing A lot to see. We also walked through fields next to Hadrians Wall. Some of these are farm fields so watch your step! Wear boots! Everyone enjoyed the trip, driver was very informative about history, local customs, anything you wanted to ask about Scotland and parts of Northern England.

THE Outlander Tour to Take in Scotland — Absolutely Incredible!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Absolute MUST for Outlander Fans!
This Outlander Tour was everything a fan could ask for and more! From beginning to end, it was an absolutely fantastic experience.
Our tour guide, Ryan, was excellent. He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much interesting history, behind-the-scenes information, and fun facts throughout the day. One of my favorite touches was that when he wasn’t sharing stories with us, he played music from Outlander while we drove between locations. It made the whole experience feel even more special and completely immersed us in the world of Outlander.
If you’re a die-hard Outlander fan, this is the tour for you! Seeing the actual filming locations in person was incredible, and I highly recommend purchasing the option that allows you to go inside the castles. It is absolutely worth it and adds so much to the experience.
This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Scotland. We loved every minute of it and would highly recommend this tour — and Ryan — to any Outlander fan! 🏴

Isle of Skye Experience
Highly recommend this tour if you like to see beautiful places all over the Isle of Skye in a short time, best of course in good weather. It was a joy with our tour guide Jason who told us a lot of interesting stories and switched a few stops to optimise the time for photos in sunny weather conditions.

Fantastic way to view Inverness sights - Thank you Karen!
Karen was a fantastic tour guide. Friendly, knowledgeable, and organized. She maximized our time to show us as many things as she could, and gave us lots of local recommendations and information. Many of the sites we saw, we could have easily spent hours at without seeing everything, but we had a good amount of time to see most of it. Culloden battlefield museum could easily be an entire afternoon trip on it's own though; there is so much to see and read! Would highly recommend, I don't often do tours but I would do this again in a heartbeat with her!

100% recommended!
Graham was a wonderful tour guide! He was full of history, interesting facts, and plenty of humor to keep us laughing all day. He made everyone on the bus feel welcome and went out of his way to give us a great day, including an unplanned detour to put us face to face with a hairy coo. In addition to the wonderful tour guide, the tour itself was delightful, with stellar scenery, fascinating history, and perfect pacing. (I confess I was worried that I would find myself in need of a toilet on the bus but the tour had plenty of stops so this did not become an issue.). I 100% recommend this tour and would take the very same tour again in a heartbeat!

Exceptional tour for fan and non-fan alike
Even if you — unlike your wife, husband, partner … — is not a dedicated Outlander fan, this tour is fascinating. Our driver/guide, Kim, was informative, entertaining, engaging and an excellent driver as we visited five locations that were enlightening to both my wife (the Outlander fan) and me, more into the history. If you stay at the W Edinborough (highly recommend) the bus station pick-up/drop-off point is just a block away. Each stop had unique value, including Blackness Castle (where Jamie burst through a window and rescued Claire, I am told) and the last stop in Culross, where some key scene played out in the courtyard outside a window where Claire could be seen from the ground. I am told it was touching.

Had a great time! Our bus...
Had a great time! Our bus driver and tour guide were amazing! I loved the tour guide’s historical knowledge and story telling. Often we find it a bit boring, but she made it fun and interesting.
What I don’t like is the lack of options for tipping. In other tours we’ve been on, there is a QR code on the bus, or some other way of tipping that doesn’t involve cash. So we weren’t able to tip our guide. This shouldn’t be.

Fantastic Day Trip – Highly Recommended
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour.. It was a long day of approximately 13 hours, but it was well worth it. The tour covered an amazing amount of territory and gave us the opportunity to see so much of the spectacular Scottish Highlands in a relatively short time.
Our tour guide, Stephen B, kept us entertained and informed throughout the day, combining fascinating history with great stories and delivering them in his own uniquely humorous style. His knowledge and personality really added to the experience.
If you have limited time in Scotland but want to see as much of the Highlands as possible, I would highly recommend this tour. Not only do you get to experience some truly breathtaking scenery, but you also gain a wonderful insight into the history, culture and stories that make this such an amazing region.

Scottish Highlands is a must!
So happy that we booked this tour to the Scottish Highlands! Stevie B navigated us safely on our journey while giving us great information along the way. His humor and kind manner made what could have been a very long day a truly wonderful experience for our family. We did not have many days in Edinburgh but sacrificing one city day was well worth it. The Highlands are so beautiful-don’t miss it! If you are prone to car sickness-don’t forget the Dramamine as you are on the bus for a long time.

Hogwarts Train Trip & scenic Highlands from Inverness
We had a great tour guide in Karen. From Inverness you are on a real time line. Karen made sure we had 15 mins spare to sort ourselves before the train left Fort William “FW”. Just a tip for future punters: from FW travel on the left or port side to enjoy full sight of the Glenfinnan Viaduct.
Spectacular scenery, much photo opportunities, interesting Karen stories throughout. A very enjoyable day.

Fantastic trip to Isle of Skye
Sonia was a fantastic guide. She had the right mix of humor, storytelling and history. The beautiful scenery speaks for itself but she added her gift for storytelling which made the whole experience that much better. If I could change one thing it would be to have fewer stops but stay longer at a few like Portree and Eilean Donan Castle.

This tour was amazing, we...
This tour was amazing, we had Cara as a driver and she was phenomenal! So knowledgeable and hilarious. It wasn’t a 100% Harry Potter tour but both Cara and the train staff was absolutely incredible at pointing out every Harry Potter point of interest. Bus was also comfortable.
