Join us on this unforgettable day trip from Glasgow for a full day of sightseeing in the breathtaking Scottish Highlands. Explore the historic Culloden Battlefield, step back in time at the Highland Folk Museum, marvel at the ancient standing stones at Clava Cairns, and discover much more. Unlike many other Highlands tours, we believe in spending a bit more time at each location, allowing you to truly immerse yourself in Scotland’s unique culture, history, and traditions. While we can’t cover every corner of the Highlands in a day, you’ll leave feeling enriched by the experiences we offer.
Our fun-filled tour is led by experienced guides who bring the 1745 Jacobite Uprising and Scottish Highland culture to life, sharing fascinating stories and uncovering hidden gems along the way. This tour is perfect for anyone looking to dive deep into Scotland’s past and is a fantastic addition to the itinerary for Outlander fans visiting Scotland.
Itinerary
Pitlochry Visitscotland Icentre
Take a rest stop in the charming Highland Perthshire town of Pitlochry, where you’ll have the option to visit the unique Heathergems Factory, with free entry. Explore the fascinating process behind these beautiful Scottish jewellery pieces, made from natural heather, and enjoy a relaxing break in this picturesque town.
The bathroom facilities have a small fee. It is advisable to have spare change on your person.
30 minutes
Highland Folk Museum
The Highland Folk Museum is an immersive open-air museum that brings the past to life, showcasing how people once lived in the Highlands. One of its highlights is the 18th-century village, famously used to film the "Rent" episode in Season 1 of Outlander. Explore authentic Highland life and step into the world of the show!
Explore the ancient and mystical Clava Cairns, a captivating site of 4,000-year-old standing stones and burial cairns. Steeped in history and surrounded by the peaceful Highland landscape, this prehistoric site offers a fascinating glimpse into Scotland’s ancient past. Wander among the stone circles and cairns, imagining the lives of those who built these structures millennia ago. It’s a truly enchanting stop for history lovers and fans of Scottish lore.
20 minutes
The Hermitage
Explore the stunning Hermitage in Perthshire, a tranquil Scottish forest filled with towering Douglas Fir trees. While a moderate level of fitness is needed, we don’t complete the full loop, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and connect with nature. This is our final stop on the tour, apart from a potential bathroom break on the journey back to Glasgow. It's the perfect way to end a day immersed in Scotland's natural beauty.

Culloden, Folk museum, and the Stones!
Published on Oct, 2019
The guide makes the tour and Johnny was the best! He shared a wealth of information and interspersed it with movie and TV tidbits regarding what was realistic from the film's and where specific scenes were filmed. Our 2hour van ride was filled with music and Scottish history, lore and laughter.

Heritage / Outlander trip
Published on Jul, 2019
We had Ross as our super friendly tour guide and we're very pleased with our entire day. It was a heritage trip with my mother and sister but as my sister and I are also fans of Outlander and other Scottish shows we really enjoyed how well informed Ross was and the insider knowledge of filming and locations and history in general. He even helped us research our relatives in available reference materials and had invaluable advice for our mother who walks with a cane on how to see as much as possible with her limited mobility. We would definitely book again and it was wonderful to have someone who can talk as much as I do and not find me a bother lol. Looking forward to booking again soon.
