We spent 2 weeks in Scotland meandering around the country and by the end of our trip, we were happy to let Emma, from Mary's Meanders, take the wheel for the final day of our trip. Emma carefully went over each location prior to our trip to make sure we were able to see the iconic sites of Scotland as well as key Outlander filming locations. She gave us the history of all the sites and the areas we drove through and visited. Emma expertly guided us through/to Craigmiller Castle, Glenkinchie Distillery, lunch at a garden center, and Glencorse Kirk. She even found a way to fit in a quick visit to the Harley Davidson dealership to pick up some souvenirs for back home. We would choose Mary's Meander's in a heart beat for our next trip!

My husband and I were on our honeymoon for two weeks in the U.K. Before we left for this trip, I had researched things to do. My birthday would be during the time we were scheduled to be in Scotland and I wanted to do this tour as my present to myself! My husband was not looking forward to doing any tours, however, he humored me. We both thoroughly enjoyed our day with Emma more than any other tours or visits the entire two weeks. We made wonderful memories and just cannot get over how accommodating Emma was. She is so knowledgeable, easy going, flexible, and helpful. I’ve just printed and framed photos we took that day at all the wonderful locations. This was a one in a million adventure.

Our tour started in Edinburgh at the Queensferry Port, from the Regal Princess. Emma picked us up at the ship, and we started our tour. There were just my wife and me on our tour. We were trying to add additional people from the ship, but our failure was now our success. Having this tour now just us, let Emma adjust our tour to fit only our desires. As we had traveled, Emma spoke of what to expect, and included her actual experiences visiting the actual filming of Outlander. We were so fortunate to have Emma’s experiences added to our visiting the many castles. She also had many pictures showing what the courtyards actually looked when filming the episodes. This immersed us into the scenes making us a part of the filming. We could not have asked for a better person to be our guide. Emma even found the time to take us to the Kelpies. What are Kelpies? They are part of Scottish Folklore, dangerous water horses, found lurking near deep lochs or fast rivers. These Kelpies are made of structural steel with a stainless steel cladding, and are 30 meters (98 feet) high. This was a real treat to see them. We will never forget the enthusiasm and graciousness of Emma. She took such good care of us, making sure we saw all we wanted and putting our tour together so well.
