Incredible Touring
In all our travels we have never ever had the kind of service that was provided both before during and after our touring. He went above and beyond and providing us information suggestions and first rate tours of both the Scottish Highlands and an outlander tour !! Kevin McHugh was amazing as was Gary Ross we cannot recommend them enough Wee Scottish Tours delivers on its promise. The van was extraordinarily comfortable, and pristine . We truly cannot think of anyone who could’ve given us a better tour or a better Scottish experience.
Response from the operator: Barbara was a delight helping you plan this tour and i am glad we could include every single thing you wanted so see and do on you’re trip to Scotland!

Outlander, whisky and more!!!
I decided to book a private tour for me and my son a few days prior to our departure from Scotland; and what a tour it was!! Not only did Kevin bring us to many Outlander filming locations (one castle also happened to be Winterfell from GOT!), he also told us so many interesting stories, facts and the history, of course, of every place we visited. Kevin also brought us to a few places that we had mentioned wanting to see at some point, but weren't really a part of the "Outlander" theme. I can't say enough about how wonderful this day was - I had never booked a private tour before, and Kevin was so welcoming, easygoing and knowledgeable. I even received a message after the tour, listing a few more sites for us to visit in the area and restaurants that we would enjoy. I will ABSOLUTELY book another tour with him!! Thanks again for everything Kevin.
Response from the operator: Sophie thank you for taking the time to leave me a review. It was a great day with you and your son and I am looking for to you coming back and spending your birthday here next year!

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Edinburgh.
How much does Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh cost?
+
Prices start at $1,218 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 Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 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 last minute in Edinburgh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh?
+
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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations 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 Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh?
+
Included: Bottled water; All taxes, fees and handling charges; Round-trip private transfer; Driver/guide; and Live commentary on board. Not included: Drinks; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 171 listed pickup locations in and around Edinburgh. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations 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 Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh?
+
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 Private Day Trip Outlander Filming Locations from Edinburgh wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
