About this trip

This nine-day tour takes you from Edinburgh across to the white sand beaches of Harris and Lewis, with the Highlands in between. It's a small-group trip led by guides who know the country's history well.

Expect a mix of city time in Edinburgh, where you'll hear about Scotland's past, the Jacobite risings and the stories behind Outlander, followed by a shift to the wilder scenery and coastline of the Outer Hebrides.

The pace moves from castles and battle sites to standing stones and open landscapes, giving you both the country's history and its geography in one trip.

What you'll do

  • Explore Edinburgh and learn about its history and the Jacobite rebellions
  • Hear about the Outlander connections to real Scottish places
  • Travel through the Highlands
  • Visit the white sand beaches of the Isle of Harris
  • See the Callanish Standing Stones on the Isle of Lewis
Good to know
  • Covers a lot of ground — city, Highlands and the Outer Hebrides in nine days
  • Guided throughout, with a focus on history and local stories rather than free time
