What an absolutely lovely day. From the gentleman at the checkin to our delightful tour guide/ driver, Paul. We enjoyed seeing and experiencing all the stops. Outlander viewers and non viewers would enjoy the history and countryside seen on this tour. I highly recommend this day trip!

Our guide was fantastic. He was quite a Scottish history enthusiast, which added to the richness of our experience. The downside, which was major, was the closures of primary attractions and the complete inaccessibility of Lollybrock. None of this was disclosed prior to ticket purchase. It would have affected our decision to buy this excursion. What we were able to see/experience was greatly enhanced by our guide. Kudos dude. You rock.

Good tour, I wish we would of added Castle Leoch, but it was good. Rosie is knowledgeable. She told us that there was some filming going on at Leoch? The actors strike was still on. Other than that it was good. She made the day fun.
