    Lord Torva (apparently he is indeed a Lord) was an amazing guide, catering to the Outlander fans and history buffs. Excellent stories and knowledge of the books/show. Highly recommend!

    Our tour driver and guide was pleasant, knowledgeable, friendly, polite and patient. Time spent on each destination was sufficient. No issues with stops for restrooms and snacks. Ride was comfortable and I felt safe during the tour. Did not only learn about Outlander filming locations but also about history. Enjoyed the Outlander filming locations visited esp. the Midhope Castle. The pick-up/drop-off point was near all the souvenir shops and restaurants, so we checked them out after the tour. Would definitely recommend this tour.

    It was well organized and clearly described on the website. We had plenty of time to see each location. It does involve some uneven stone stairs if you want to go inside the castles. Got to see the most important locations from the first several episodes. It was fascinating and a lot of fun. It is a long day with a lot of bus riding but a very comfortable bus and absolutely worth it. You will want to get the ticket that allows you to go inside the castles.
