Outlander Books Jamie & Claire Tour general Desription

We think that our Jamie and Claire Tour ™ is as close as you can get in a week or so to their adventures in Scotland. We visit the places they did, choosing the locations and experiences closest to the Outlander books. WALKING IS ESSENTIAL to this tour, (although not arduous if you're in fairly good condition and having good, healthy lungs) as we leave the vehicle behind a few hours at a time, put on our HIKING BOOTS (unlike poor Claire, who kept losing fru-fru slip-on shoes along the way) and experience the paths and hills of the Highlands. We'll also explore the cobbled streets of Edinburgh to search for the area of Madame Jeanne's and the reunion at A. Malcolm Printer. We will witness parts of the battle and pay our respects to the fallen at Culloden Battlefield. And of course, we will look for the elusive Stone that brought Claire into Jamie's life. We'll admire the surrounding countryside of Lallybroch on foot and stay in some traditional accommodations of the Highlands. There will be time for music, Gàidhlig lessons and storytelling of the 18th century with a real Highland Storyteller! Your guides are devoted Jamie and Claire fans and have created experiences that best reflect the atmosphere of their adventures and life in the 1700s, without non-book filler.

Who are the tours for?

This adventure is for Outlandish Spirits; both men and women. An OS in Scotland is someone who wants to explore the real Highlands. Someone brave enough to leave the city and shopping behind and go hiking through a woodland or straight up a hill, clamber around in the heather, enjoy gorgeous mountains and lochs, explore ancient ruins, try new foods, partake in a bit of Usige Beatha, breathe, be quirky, and be open to new experiences. Anyone can be an Outlandish Spirit - many people are and just don't know it until they get away from their 'normal' environments. Yes, it helps if you've read the first two or three books of Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, but if you haven't, and you're coming with someone who has, not to worry! The scenery, experiences and conversation are as diversified as its guides and the people who come along. This is definitely not a 'hen party'. Scot is here and we get guys joining tours to balance things out. Basically, we love Scotland and we want to share it with everyone, so we extend a warm invitation to readers and their partners!
Note: These tours are non-smoking for the comfort of everyone and to follow current Scottish laws.
