Outlander

Outlander Group Tour 14 passengers maximum

Did you know that we love outlander just as much as our guests do? We have the books, watched the TV series and tried to find Jamie when we are not working.


We were lucky enough to get to meet and question Diane Gabaldon about the books and her plans for the future. We, of course, will never tell just anyone what the plans are from what she told us but showing you around our Outlander countryside is as much fun for you as it is for us sharing it with you.


On this tour we visit the famous Culloden Battlefield, Clava Cairns, Loch Ness, Beauly (home of the Frasers) and more.
