Overview

Entering on this tour will enable guests to sit comfortably within a private executive air conditioned vehicle, with a knowledgeable guide to inform them along the way. It is the intention to maximise the enjoyment for guests on their Highland Adventure. Sharing beautiful locations that the highlands have to offer. We can set foot on the actual Culloden Battlefield, walking through the Government lines. sharing the local knowledge and historic understanding. Walk through the Historic Clava Cairns, relive that "outlander" moment of transportation through the standing stones. Visit quaint country locations for that refreshing coffee or lunch stop away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Flexibility within the day allows for deviation from the recognized route for specific area or activity of interest to guests like Whisky Distilling, Geology or Ancestral history. It is very customer focused and strive to make your visit to the Highlands a memorable one for all the right reasons.

Clava Cairns

A short distance from Culloden Battlefield finds the ancient Clava Cairns. This location is well visited and the Cairns and standing stones are believed to be approximately 4000 years old. This is a well maintained area and although not paved is accessible to all. Access to the centre of the Cairns is also available. The largest of the standing stones is very popular to recreate that "Outlander " moment of transportation through the stone and back in time as done by both Clair and Brianna many times!!!!

Beauly Priory

Visit Beauly and the Old Priory building. Beauly was again another Highland location mentioned heavily in Outlander and is the home of Lord Lovat again mentioned in Outlander. Old Priory Beauly is a well visited location and the ruins look spectacular in its current state. It is estimated to have been founded in 1230. The French monks, had a strong enough French-speaking presence to give the location and the river the name "beau lieu" ("beautiful place") and have it pass into English. An alternative story about the naming of Beauly village is that 'Mary, Queen of Scots' was said to have been travelling through the area, in her late teens and popped her head out of the Carriage window and uttered the words 'Beau Lieu' (beautiful place). It is not the best documented abbey, and few of the priors of Beauly are known by name until the 14th century. It became Cistercian on 16 April 1510, after the suppression of the Valliscaulian Order by the Pope.
