    Highly Recommended

    We went on the Outlander tour and had an absolutely brilliant time. You honestly couldn't ask for a better tour guide than Stewart he really made the whole experience for us. His knowledge of Scotland is genuinely encyclopaedic, and he somehow made every road, every village and every place we passed interesting. Even when we got stuck in traffic, it didn't matter Stewart would have a brilliant story about exactly where we were, and the time would pass in no time. His passion for Scotland really comes across, and he turned what was already a great tour into something we’ll remember for a very long time. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Highland Experience Tours to anyone. It's far more than just a sightseeing trip it's an experience you'll remember forever. And if you’re lucky enough to get Stewart as your guide, you're in for an amazing tour.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for such a lovely review! We’re delighted you had such a great time on our Outlander tour. Stewart will be pleased to hear that his knowledge, stories and passion for Scotland made the experience so memorable, even during the slower stretches of the journey. Thank you for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back to Scotland for another tour in the future! Best wishes, Eleonora Highland Experience Tours

    OUTLANDER

    We did the 2 Day Outlander tour. This tour was amazing , love the small group size. I would give our driver Kenny 10 STARS+ he made the tour with his history, humor and personalization. I would highly recommend this tour!!!!! Most of the admission frees were included. We were short on time the first day as 2 people were over a hlaf hour late. PEOPLE be on time

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the 2-day Outlander tour and that the small group size made the experience even better. Kenny will be pleased to hear that his knowledge, humour and personal approach made the tour so memorable. We fully second your recommendation for future travellers about being on time! Being ready for departure helps ensure everyone gets as much time as possible at each stop. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you back to Scotland soon! Best wishes, Eleonora Highland Experience Tours

    Excellent Outlander Experience And More!

    You will hit many Outlander filming locations on this tour as well as learning a lot of Scottish History and Culture. Ample time is given at each stop for exploring, taking pictures, grabbing a bite to eat and a bathroom break. The towns you go to are all lovely as well as the opportunity to enjoy the breathtaking highlands throughout the tour. Our Tour Guide, Kenny Kirk, was very friendly and informative throughout - he ensured that each of us enjoyed the experience. I, particularly, enjoyed his music playlists - it helped enhance my tour experience (as well as the Irn Bru)!

    Response from the operator: Hi Sandra, We are really happy to hear that you had great fun learning about Scottish history and culture! Glad to hear that your guide Kenny made your trip even more enjoyable through his music and stories! We hope to see you again soon. Kind Regards Teddy Highland Experience

    This is your sign to book it!

    Craig was absolutely incredible! He is the nicest person and very funny! Honestly one of the biggest highlights of our two week trip through the UK and Norway was this two day tour through the Scottish Highlands. If you’re debating taking this, let this be your sign to book it and have an incredible experience through the Highlands! They really make sure your experience is efficient, comfortable, and one to remember!

    Response from the operator: Hello, We are really happy to hear that you enjoyed your trip with Craig and that it has been a highlight of your overall trip! hope to see you again Kind regards Teddy Highland Experience

    Exceptional 2 day tour into the Highlands

    Fantastic 2 day tour, our guide Kenny was exceptional, very knowledgeable about both Scottish History and Outlander. We were able to see additional places of interest and Kenny also pointed out other significant Scottish landmarks etc along the way. The B&B accommodation was spot on, breakfast was delicious and the owner John very accommodating. I highly recommend this tour, if you are fortunate enough to get Kenny then expect great chat, loads of laughs and some very special music along the way.

    Response from the operator: Hi there Kate, Thanks for taking the time to share your experience, it is great to hear that you enjoyed your 2 day Outlander tour to the beautiful Highlands! We will be sure to pass along your compliments to Kenny, as we know how hard our guides work and the level of care they have for creating great experiences for our guests. Kind regards, Holly Highland Experience

    2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Edinburgh.

    How much does 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh cost?

    +

    Prices start at $313 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Edinburgh usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Edinburgh is not rushed.

    Is 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 69 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Edinburgh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh?

    +

    Around 24 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Edinburgh can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Edinburgh and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Edinburgh within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Edinburgh?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Edinburgh experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Chocolatarium Chocolate Tour Experience in Edinburgh, The Mountebank Comedy Walk of Edinburgh, Edinburgh Old Town: Historical Guided Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Edinburgh?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Edinburgh?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh?

    +

    Included: Transport by air-conditioned Mercedes mini-bus; Overnight accommodation in Inverness; Breakfast; Professional driver-guide; and Live commentary on board. Not included: Food and drinks; Gratuities; and Attraction Fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh?

    +

    Please check in with Highland Experience staff inside/outside Caffe Nero by 08:45 Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh?

    +

    Is 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to 2-Day Outlander Experience Small Group Tour from Edinburgh if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Edinburgh. Standard cancellation terms apply.
