Royal Burgh of Culross
Culross — Several parts of Culross are used to depict the village of Cranesmuir, predominantly for season 1 of Outlander. Of note is the Mercat Cross (located in the centre of Culross). This is where Geillis Duncan’s house is, where Jamie frees the young thief that has been ‘pinned to the post’ and where Geillis is carried off to burn for witchcraft. Also very recently in season 4 when Briana encounters Laoghaire and Joanie on her way to seek passage to America, Joanie and Briana can be seen tending the garden outside a house which is close to the Mercat Cross, however the interior of Laoghaire’s home is represented by the interior of the nearby Culross palace.

Doune Castle
Doune Castle (optional extra), which featured as Castle Leoch in Outlander. You might also recognise this medieval Castle from many other different films and tv programmes such as Game of Thrones and Monty Python and the Holy Grail. 

Linlithgow Palace
Linlithgow Palace — Linlithgow Palace — These hugely impressive ruins were the birthplace of several monarchs, but the most notable was Mary Queen of Scots. .The foreboding shell of Linlithgow Palace dates back to the 12th century. It is used as the set for the infamous Wentworth Prison in Outlander. This is where Jamie was held prisoner and tortured by Black Jack Randall, one of the most intense scenes filmed during the TV series. Have you spotted the Palace in the new 2018 blockbuster movie 'Outlaw King' about Robert The Bruce.

The Palace is centrally located in the town of Linlithgow where there will be plenty of choices for lunch.

Midhope Castle
Midhope Castle –We finish our Outlander Experience tour with a photo opportunity at one of the most iconic sets in the series. This humble 16th century tower house is none other than Lallybroach, the home of Jamie Fraser.

Any fan of Outlander will immediately recognise the archway entrance. Visitors are unable to go inside the castle, but Jamie’s lovely Lallybroch home is still an essential photo opportunity for any fan of the show making your Outlander Experience complete.

Forth Bridge (Pass By)
Journey back to Edinburgh with beautiful views over the Forth Bridges.
