Executive Travel & Guided Tours through the Highlands of Scotland

See the battlefield as its preserved this day, walk through the paved areas, passing both the Jacobite and Government lines. View the Clan stones and large cairn identifying the many Clans that fought together. From an "Outlander" perspective witness the Clan Fraser stone, referred to in the Outlander Series where "Jamie" experienced the battlefield itself. There is a visitors centre on site that provides an indoor information tour (self guided) but incurs additional costs to enter the tour. Restrooms, café and shop are free to enter.

A short distance from Culloden Battlefield finds the ancient Clava Cairns. This location is well visited and the Cairns and standing stones are believed to be approximately 4000 years old. This is a well maintained area and although not paved is accessible to all. Access to the centre of the Cairns is also available. The largest of the standing stones is very popular to recreate that "Outlander " moment of transportation through the stone and back in time as done by both Clair and Brianna many times!!!!

Travel to the country village of Cawdor a few miles to the East of both Culloden and Clava. Cawdor Castle dates back to 1179 and is located on the outskirts of the village in an idyllic setting with its vast gardens and grounds. The Castle itself has that mythical connection to William Shakespeare tragedy "Macbeth" The Castle is well maintained and open to the public on an admission fee, this enables access to the castle itself and its many rooms and well preserved architecture. Guests also get access to the splendour of the castle Gardens which are very well presented and maintained.

Head for the largest loch in Scotland with its mythical history of the Loch Ness Monster living deep within the Loch. Options of visiting the shoreline and pebble beach at the Village of Dores or drive along the A82 road as it winds between the Loch and the rock face towards Drumnadrochit and the Great Glen. There is also the option of taking a boat trip from the Clansman along the loch towards Urquhart Castle where you can alight from the boat and enter the grounds of the castle. There is additional costs for both the boat trip and entry to the castle.

Urquart Castle overlooks Loch ness from its rocky point just west of Drumnadrochit. The castle has history dating way back and in 1296 it was said to have been taken by the English when Edward 1 invaded Scotland. It was however reclaimed by the Scots but lost again later to the English yet again. The ground of the Castle are very well cared for enabling visitors the opportunity to walk down through the grounds taking in the vast Loch to either side of the Castle. There is an additional cost for admission to the Castle.

Visit Beauly and the Old Priory building. Beauly was again another Highland location mentioned heavily in Outlander and is the home of Lord Lovat again mentioned in Outlander. Old Priory Beauly is a well visited location and the ruins look spectacular in its current state. It is estimated to have been founded in 1230. The French monks, had a strong enough French-speaking presence to give the location and the river the name "beau lieu" ("beautiful place") and have it pass into English. An alternative story about the naming of Beauly village is that 'Mary, Queen of Scots' was said to have been travelling through the area, in her late teens and popped her head out of the Carriage window and uttered the words 'Beau Lieu' (beautiful place). It is not the best documented abbey, and few of the priors of Beauly are known by name until the 14th century. It became Cistercian on 16 April 1510, after the suppression of the Valliscaulian Order by the Pope.
