My son and I went on the Outlander tour from Glasgow on the 16th March 2024, it was for my birthday, we had a great day, our tour guide was Fraser he was friendly and funny, and very knowledgeable about the tour and about outlander, and all the castles and places we visited , the weather was great which made it better as well, my son William also enjoyed it and he hasn’t even seen outlander, if you are a outlander fan I would recommend rabbies tours . the coach was comfortable and clean.

Alastair was our fun, enthusiastic and knowledgeable driver and tour guide. We had a great time. We loved getting up close to Lallybroch and other Outlander locations. We enjoyed seeing the countryside and talking about things in historical context. We highly recommend this tour. You get out what you put in. Prepare to have a good time.

Tom was an absolutely AMAZING tour guide!!! He was a wealth of knowledge and it made the day even more special and interesting!! I couldn’t have asked for a better day and a better guide as an Outlander fan!! HIGHLY recommend this tour!!!!!!!

I loved this trip. Our tour guide Kaitlyn is a lovely young woman. My mobility is a little bit limited and she was very helpful in making sure I had a good day. Getting in and around castle Duone was a wonderful experience that she made easier for me. Seeing the Outlander loccation in Falkland was sentimental and fun. This has been my favorite tour so far.

Tour was well set up but unfortunately our driver wasn't too much of an Outlander enthusiast and the rest of the travelers also weren't.... the Outlander vibe was not strong in this one ;-)

Do not miss this tour. The experience allowed us to get a feeling for life in the medieval and later periods. The castles and sites visited are all remarkable. Our guide, Andrew, was thoroughly knowledgeable about the logistics of the tour which made the day run so smoothly even with traffic issues. He was warm, welcoming, fun, and gracious.Andrew provided a lot of historical context for each of the sites as well as general Scottish history to augment knowledge of the specific sites we visited. I do not know anything about the Outlander books/TV series but that information was also included. Doone castle also has audio guides (included) which were incredibly helpful. (Brush up on Monty Python and the Holy Grail which was filmed there.) Their audio guides include Outlander details. While visiting the 1597 palace of salt merchant Richard Bruce in Culross, we also explored the nearby medieval church/monastery. Thanks to Rabbie’s tours!!!

Fun and worth it! I did read a few of the books but not my husband. The sites were interesting from a historical and visual standpoint and we were both very glad we booked this trip. And did this on our 12th day in Scotland so it's not as though we had not seen quite a bit before hand.

The guide was very entertaining and informative. He recommended a nice place for lunch. He fit everything in before it got too dark since we were traveling in December

Our tour guide Graham made the day a wonderful adventure for my husband and I who are big Outlander fans. We learned extra facts about Scotland too and had more than enough time for lunch and bathroom breaks. I would highly recommend taking this tour.
