About This Tour

A private tour for your group only, to real Outlander filming locations — Lallybroch, Cranesmuir, Fort William, and Doune Castle. This is a private tour for your group only. Real filming locations include Lallybroch, Cranesmuir, Fort William, and Doune Castle.

Fort William earns its 'Gateway to the Highlands' nickname from real military history, not marketing. Oliver Cromwell's army built the first wooden stockade here in 1654; King William III replaced it with a proper stone-and-earth fort in 1690, and it proved sturdy enough to survive a real Jacobite siege in 1746 without falling. Soldiers were garrisoned here until 1854, and today the town's West Highland Museum holds a genuine collection of Jacobite relics and memorabilia from that era — a real counterpoint to the fiction the rest of this day explores.

Doune Castle, the tour's other real castle stop, has its own well-documented medieval history quite apart from its screen career. It was built for Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany — son of King Robert II and uncle to King James I — who used his position as regent to construct one of the most complete surviving courtyard castles of its era. After Albany's death in 1420, the castle passed to his son Murdoch, who was executed for treason once the ransomed James I returned to claim the throne.

The fictional village of Cranesmuir, meanwhile, was really filmed in Culross, a genuine National Trust for Scotland village on the Firth of Forth — its white-harled houses and cobbled streets were painted a darker grey for the cameras. Lallybroch itself is the real Midhope Castle, on the Hopetoun Estate a short drive away, a genuine 15th-century tower house with its own history stretching back centuries before Outlander ever arrived.
