Overview

Embark on an exclusive journey through time, unveiling ancient sites, pivotal battlefields, and iconic castles that encapsulate the essence of Scottish Highland culture. This private tour starts 4000 years in the past at Clava Cairns. This is a mystical site of worship, burial, and sacrifice. Comparisons have been drawn with 'Craig na Dun'. At Culloden Battlefield' I will take you on a tour of 'ground zero' for the highland way of life and culture. This experience will explain to you what Scotland used to be like, what happened, and what it's like now. Onwards to 'Cawdor Castle. This is an impressive 15th-century tower house and was mentioned in Shakespeare's play Macbeth. (An alternative to Urquhart Castle will be offered in the winter season, October–April.) The afternoon is more relaxed, with a scenic drive down Loch Ness for a spot of monster hunting. Then off Robertson's farm in Beauly to see the native Highland Cows.

Itinerary

  • Beauly

    This beautiful village is west of Inverness, with royal roots and fascinating attractions. Legends have it that visiting royalty, Mary, Queen of Scots, commented, “C’est un beau lieu” when first seeing the town, and the name “Beau Lieu” has stuck ever since!

    30 minutes

  • Loch Ness

    Visitors flock to Loch Ness, hoping to catch a glimpse of its elusive and eponymous monster, Loch Ness. This lake in the Scottish Highlands is worth the trip, even if you don’t believe the rumors. Vast and surrounded by magnificent Scottish scenery, Loch Ness is a popular boating and sightseeing spot.

    20 minutes

  • Clava Cairns

    The Clava Cairns—or the Prehistoric Burial Cairns of Balnuaran of Clava—are all that remains of what was once a much larger Bronze Age burial complex. Dating back 4,000 years, the evocative cemetery site retains its original features, including passage graves, standing stones, and ring cairns (stone circles).

    30 minutes

  • Culloden Battlefield

    The Culloden Battlefield was the site of one of the last battles to take place on British soil. On April 16, 1746, Bonnie Prince Charlie and his army of 5,000 Jacobite Highlanders faced off against the Duke of Cumberland and 9,000 Hanoverian government troops. Though the Jacobites fought valiantly, they were ultimately defeated, resulting in the elimination of the Scottish clan system and the suppression of Highland culture. Today, the Culloden Battlefield Visitor Center retells the events of that fateful day through interactive exhibits that put travelers in the thick of the action.

    2 hours

  • Cawdor Castle

    A romantic fairy-tale castle that has been the home of the Thanes of Cawdor since 1370, Cawdor has evolved into a charming family mansion and the most outstanding of stately homes. The dramatic medieval tower, dungeon, turrets, battlements, and drawbridge belie an enchanting interior of fine art, tapestries, and furniture that create the warm and welcoming feel of a home rather than a museum. The castle, set in stunning grounds with three beautiful and varied gardens, is surrounded by the magnificent Cawdor Big Wood, one of the finest woodland areas in Europe, threaded with color-coded nature trails to explore. (Alternative of Urquhart Castle in the winter of Oct-Apr)

Thanks to Amy and Atom Tours for an unforgettable day—I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat!

Published on Mar, 2025

If you love Outlander—or simply enjoy a great day out—this tour with Atom Tours is an absolute must! The entire experience was fun, well-organized, and full of surprises. Our guide, Amy, was fantastic: knowledgeable, engaging, and full of captivating stories. A real highlight was visiting Culloden Moor, a truly moving experience that brought history vividly to life. Honestly, every stop felt like its own little adventure, making the day simply amazing. We celebrated a friend’s birthday on this tour, and it turned out to be a brilliant way to mark the occasion! With a perfect blend of history, stunning locations, and Outlander magic, this tour is unforgettable. Even if you’re not a die-hard fan, you’ll love every moment. Highly recommend—especially with Amy as your guide!

Birthday Surprise!!

Published on Feb, 2025

We enjoyed a day filled with fun, delicious food, and fascinating information. Amy proved to be an exceptional tour guide, and our sunset visit to Culloden Battlefield was especially atmospheric. I learned so much about Scottish history and truly loved the experience. Amy ensured the day was completely stress-free and catered to all our needs, making it a truly unforgettable experience.

Simply the Best!

Published on Feb, 2025

Amy took me and some friends on a surprise OUTLANDER tour for my birthday and packed the day with surprises from start to finish - even the complimentary single malt on departure! All along the way, we were mesmerised by the tales, stories and history of Scotland and in-depth comparisons with the Outlander narrative. Stopping off in Forres, before arriving at Glen Ord Distillery for a tour and to fill my very own bottle of Cask Strength Singleton, before heading to The Priory in Beully, then Loch Ness for some Nessy spotting, then onto a private lunch at The Loch Ness Country House, then onto Culloden Battlefield for the best insight into the horrors and complications of that sad day in history and then on to the Pictish Cairns at Cawdor before being dropped of exactly on time for evening dinner in Elgin! - Timings were to military perfection - Banter was of the scale - Attention to detail was above and beyond! Loved it all and would highly recommend!

I booked this tour thru Tours by Locals website and choose Amy and her company, and I am so happy that I did. Amy picked us up promptly at scheduled time and explained to us the itinerary for our day. Even though I booked the Outlander Experience I was the only one in my family who even watched Outlander!! We went to Clava Cairns, Culloden, Cawdor Castle (definitely eat lunch at the cafe there-So good!), Loch Ness, went up into the Highlands and ended with seeing some Highland Coos! The enthusiasm and love of her country is evident when Amy is sharing the Scottish history with us. I loved how she built the story for us throughout the day of everywhere we visited. She is an incredible storyteller and historian. I felt like I was in my favorite history class. You know when someone can make you see the history in your mind, they are great! Amy does just that! She kept us timely without making us feel rushed and she is a very good driver and keeps everyone safe! I especially loved the trip up the road in the Highlands where we stopped for a bit and she shared (she did not drink any) a wee bit of Scottish Whiskey from her hometown with my brother in laws and myself. When I come back again, I will not hesitate to book another tour with Amy! You should too!! Thank you, Amy, and what a delightful person and excellent historian you are!!
