    Fantastic day! I loved the whole itinerary and the pace was just right. Our tour guide, Nicky, drove very safely in the rain and provided amazing stories during the trip. She toured us around to show some of the filming locations which I wouldn't have recognized if she hadn't pointed it out. She also takes great photos! 10/10 would recommend!

    Great tour guide by Liz. The weather helped in the beginning of the day but then it rained when we went to Jamie's family house. The other person on tour with me didn't care either and we enjoyed a few pics in the rain. If you loved the Outlander, you'll love this tour...and the bonus is that you get a history of Scotland, beautiful views of the outlying areas of Glasgow, and the relevance to the Outlander series. Highly recommend!
