What to expect
Linlithgow Palace
A photo-stop at Linlithgow Palace which stands in for the prison entrance & corridors.
Blackness Castle
The 15th century fortress of Blackness Castle which doubles as the setting for the Fort William headquarters of Black Jack Randall and the heart-wrenching scene of Jamie’s incarceration. With views of the Forth Bridges as a backdrop Blackness Castle is a great opportunity for photos too.
Midhope Castle
We then travel to the place that needs no introduction "Midhope Castle", known as Jamie’s lovely home Lallybroch and you'll get a warmer welcome than he did. The cosy interior of the house has been re-created in the film studios, this is an external visit only. In reality, visitors can’t explore the ruins of the castle but you can sit on the iconic steps of Lallybroch and wait for Jamie or Claire to walk through the beautiful archway in the courtyard. Access to Lallybroch | Midhope Castle is seasonal and access is not guaranteed.
Forth Road Bridge
As your tour leaves Edinburgh admire magnificent views across the Firth of Forth as you drive north to Fife. Keep a look out for the UNESCO-listed Forth Bridge as you cross the Forth Road Bridge, then soak up the scenery as you wind through the countryside.
Royal Burgh of Culross
Next we make our way to the filming location of The Royal Burgh of Culross, a town that time has passed by, which lies on the banks of the River Forth and was the location for the fictional village of Cranesmuir. The town centre dates back to the 16th Century and it is at Culross Palace that you will find Claire’s herb garden and many of the buildings that star in the show. It is the most complete example in Scotland today of a Burgh of the 17th & 18th centuries.
Doune Castle
Leaving Culross now travel to Castle Leoch, home to the fictional Colum MacKenzie and the MacKenzie clan, in the beautiful little town of Doune. Doune Castle was built around 1400 by Robert Stewart, 1st Duke of Albany, Earl of Menteith and Fife, a magnificent late 14th century courtyard castle. It plays a leading role in the show standing in for the fictional Castle Leoch, home to Colum MacKenzie and his clan in the 18th century episodes, and if you want to see the famous backdrop where Claire’s mysteriously disappears through the standing stones Its most striking feature is the 100ft high gatehouse which includes the splendid Lord’s Hall with its musicians’ gallery, double fireplace and carved oak screen and you can hear the stories of the making of Monty Python and the Holy Grail which was also filmed at the castle.
University of Glasgow
Filming took place at the University of Glasgow during the summer of 2016, then later in the winter. It was used for scenes involving Harvard University, where Frank worked as a Professor. The University is Glasgow one of the world’s oldest universities, dating back to its founding in 1451. It is the fourth oldest university in the English-speaking world. Located in the the west end of Glasgow it is surrounded by many inviting attractions, including nearby art galleries, parks and lovely tree-lined streets.
