The Hermitage
Option to visit this stretch of magical Perthshire forest was originally designed as a pleasure ground in the 18th century for the Dukes of Atholl. Douglas firs tower over the paths leading to the roaring Black Linn Falls, where the River Braan crashes down into the deep, foaming pools below. Overlooking the waterfall is the picturesque folly known as Ossian’s Hall, built in 1757 as the focal point in an extensive designed landscape. Decorated with mirrors, sliding panels and paintings, it has been refurbished to re-create the illusions of shock, surprise and amazement that were the aims of the folly’s original design. It makes a fine spot to contemplate the roaring, tumbling falls.

Interesting and beautiful trip to Perthshire Highlands
Chris took us on an excellent tour of the Perthshire highlands. We are really interested in history and he covered 15,000 years in a fun and relatable way. Chris is not only a great guide/driver but a walking encyclopedia of Scottish and world history. It was a really enjoyable day and we will recommend him to friends.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm so glad you enjoyed your day exploring the Perthshire Highlands—it’s such a stunning part of Scotland with stories stretching back thousands of years. It was a real pleasure sharing that history with you in a way that brought it to life. I truly appreciate the recommendation and would love to welcome you or your friends on another adventure whenever the Highlands call again!

Wonderful experience!!
Amazing!!!! We prebooked chris before we got to Scotland and so glad we did. Chris helped us pick the right tour. This tour you will see some stunning sites. We loved the hermitage! Magical! It was the best mix to see a bit of Scotland! Can’t wait to come back, book again and see more! Book you will not be disappointed!
Response from the operator: The Hermitage is always a winner (alongside my roguish charm as well I’m sure). The tour up to the Perthshire Highlands is a great way to see Scotland and glad you felt that way about it. Cheers Chris

Why this scores 47
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Edinburgh.
How much does Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $778 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 Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8.5 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 Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Edinburgh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour?
+
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 Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour?
+
Around 1 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 8.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour 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 Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour?
+
Included: Bottled water. Not included: Gratuities; Lunch; and Entry to the sites are not included (Castles, Distilleries) estimated 17 pound, equivalent. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 407 listed pickup locations in and around Edinburgh. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour 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 Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Perthshire Highlands: Private Land Rover Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

+
