Itinerary

Your tour begins at Glasgow's Buchanan Bus Station

Meet your guide at Glasgow's Buchanan Bus Station and settle into a comfortable 16-seat mini-coach. Roll out past Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument as the countryside opens toward the first filming location.

Explore Doune Castle, the mighty Castle Leoch

Step inside the 14th-century stronghold that stars as Castle Leoch, ancestral home of Colum MacKenzie. Your guide walks you through the Great Hall where clan gatherings unfold, sharing the medieval history behind the walls.

Wander the cobbled streets of Falkland

Next, roll north into Falkland, the tidy Fife village that doubles as 1940s Inverness. Look for Mrs. Baird's Guesthouse and the Bruce Fountain, then break for lunch at a local cafe along the quiet stone-lined lanes.

Pose at Midhope Castle, the iconic Lallybroch

Then travel on to Midhope Castle, the 15th-century tower house known to fans as Lallybroch. Photograph the storied courtyard archway and weathered steps from outside, where some of the show's most tender scenes were filmed.

Walk the ramparts of Blackness Castle

Continue to Blackness Castle, the 15th-century fortress shaped like a stone ship and cast as Fort William. Stroll its ramparts and shadowy chambers with your guide, who recounts the grim tales staged within the seaside walls.

Roam the cobbled lanes of Culross

Finally, arrive in Culross, the 16th-century burgh that plays Cranesmuir. Wander cobbled lanes to the herb garden behind the ochre-walled palace, the spot where Geillis Duncan's story quietly unfolds on screen.

Your tour ends at Glasgow's Buchanan Bus Station

Relax on the scenic return drive as the Fife countryside slips by, arriving back at Glasgow's Buchanan Bus Station. Ask your guide for evening tips before heading off with a head full of Highland history.
