Extension Style

Best time for travel discover scotland.

While just about any month is great to visit Scotland, there are a few prime times of the year for the Discover Scotland tour. Here are some recommendations from our destination experts.

Spring: During the springtime, you’ll find fewer crowds in places like Orkney and the Isle of Skye, which can give you more opportunities to take the time to appreciate your surroundings.

Summer: August is the perfect time to visit Edinburgh, as the Military Tattoo and Edinburgh Festival both take place then. It’s crowded, but the city is alive with many cultural events. And generally, it’s good weather (fingers crossed for not too much rain!). Places like Orkney and the Isle of Skye can be crowded, too, but longer days give you more time to explore.

Fall: After mid-September, there are fewer crowds at Orkney and the Isle of Skye, making your visit all the more relaxing.

Let Scotland's lochs and highlands enchant you

There's a reason a unicorn is the symbol of Scotland—it's a land of pure magic. Travel there with CIE Tours to discover every enchanting vista, from the heather-covered Highlands to the depths of Loch Ness. Explore the rich Scottish culture, beyond the traditions of tartan, whisky and bagpipes. Let us introduce you to the charms of Scotland.

With its medieval Old Town, chic Georgian New Town, and timeless views from Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh is truly the romantic heart of Scotland.

The Scottish capital's "Old Town" retains much of its medieval-era charm—and wandering the streets and exploring the shops is a popular thing to do in Edinburgh.

Military Tattoo

One of the most popular things to do in Edinburgh is this August event—a grand tradition that began after World War II, with drum and pipe corps from around the world performing.

• Edinburgh Castle

Walk in the footsteps of soldiers, kings and queens, and even the odd pirate or two at this unforgettable Scottish destination.

This medieval-era royal residence, military garrison, prison and fortress, is alive with many exciting tales.

• Isle of Skye

One of the largest of Scotland's 790 islands, Isle of Skye features colorful port towns and villages, and dramatic, stony landscapes.

• Dunvegan Castle

This medieval fortress rises up majestically from a promontory on the Isle of Skye.

Whisky Distillery

One of Scotland's most legendary creations is its fine Scotch whisky—and many CIE Tours of Scotland feature distillery tours where you can sample a dram or two and see how it's created.

A wild storm nearly two centuries ago unearthed this seaside Neolithic village of stone, dating to between 3200 and 2200 BC.

Scottish Highlands

The best time to catch the Highlands heather in full bloom is late August into September. But you can taste it year round in heather ale and Scottish honey—the bees often rely on heather pollen for their food source.

The Old Course at St Andrews is the very first golf course in the world, dating back to the 1400s.

• Stirling Castle

Scotland's grand castle played a key role in both Scottish and English history, and many of the most famous Scots, including Mary Queen of Scots and Robert Bruce, once dwelled within its walls.

• Iron Age House

The sea helped bring this nearly intact Pictish village to light, just 25 years ago.

Quaint Culross lets visitors step back in time to the 17th and 18th centuries for a taste of what life was like for its inhabitants. It's served as a backdrop for many scenes in the series Outlander.

• Loch Lomond

Loch Lomond is the largest lake by area in all of Scotland, at more than 24 miles in length. You'll find Scotland's famous red deer and other wildlife along its shores.

Callanish Stones

These mysterious Neolithic "standing stones" in the Outer Hebrides may be older than Stonehenge.

The depths of this lovely Scottish lake contain more fresh water than all the lakes in England and Wales combined—and perhaps, if the legends are true, "Nessie," the Loch Ness Monster.

• Urquhart Castle

Some of Scotland's most stirring history has taken place at this magisterial fortress overlooking Loch Ness.

This historic climbing hut is an icon in black and white against the green hills of Glencoe.

2023 Outlander Tours of Scotland

The 2024 outlander tours are now available, here they are: outlander tours of scotland 2024, outlander tours of scotland 2023.

Immerse yourself in the beautiful vistas and local villages of Scotland where Jamie & Claire lived and loved! These tours are led by the fabulous guides from Inverness Tours who tell you all of the tidbits about Outlander, and also share their love and vast knowledge about Scotland and Scottish history. Plus, they're fun!

These immersive Outlander Tours of Scotland are small group, 7 passenger 8 night (including hotels, entrance fees and 5* Scottish guides) total immersions into the spectacular sights & scenery of the Outlander TV Series and of Diana Gabaldon's original Outlander book series. This tour also includes a performance by "The Bard" (if available) from Castle Leoch and then period costumes on the final day. This is one of the few tours that actually visits the filming site of Craigh na Dun!

The Outlander Redoux Tours of Scotland include 3 things that travelers on the Immersion tour requested: 1) a ride on the Jacobite Train, 2) more time in Inverness and 3) more time on the Isle of Skye (but wait, there's more!) as well sites from season 2 and some from seasons 3 and 4! This tour includes mill where Jamie got naked, the church where Jamie and Claire were married, Rosslyn Chapel, Eilean Donan Castle, two nights on the Isle of Skye and a ride on the Jacobite Steam Train (yes, the Hogwarts Express or the Harry Potter Train from Platform 9¾ ).

The Ancient Scotland Tours delve into fascinating sites of Scottish History. This tour includes Kilmartin Glen, which holds over 300 ancient monuments, Old Inverlochy Castle and medieval cathedral and priory of St Andrews on the mainland of Scotland. The highlight of this tour is the 2 full days on the Orkney Islands where you'll experience a plethora of intriguing ancient sites including Standing Stones of Stenness, Ring of Brodgar, Ness of Brodgar, Maeshowe, Skara Brae, Italian Chapel, Orkney Winery, Bishop's Palace, Earl's Palace, as well as St Magnus Cathedral.

More tours can be added by request for groups of 4 or more. See Testimonials Here.

Longevity! Hugh Allison and I have been running these Outlander tours for 6 years now (since the TV series started), and for years before that he was taking people on day tours of the sites from the Outlander books. (He even took Diana Gabaldon on a tour - she has a picture on her website.) Hugh and I combined forces to create an 8 night tour and have gotten rave reviews. Plus, we are one of the few tours to visit the filming site of Craigh na Dun! See our testimonials here. And here are our Facebook Reviews.

Private family or group tours can be arranged. Give me a call, text me or drop me an email and let me help you make your dream a reality. I love helping people plan their trips! And I am a full service travel agent. Contact Us

As one past traveler said: "I can't even begin to tell you what a thrilling experience we all had in Scotland. It was the best trip EVER! It was absolutely everything I had hoped for as an Outlander fan, and it went well beyond expectations. The lodging was great, the excursions with Ian were fabulous and the memories we made are priceless. We all fell in love with Scotland!"

TREES FOR SCOTLAND: For every person that signs up for a 2023 tour and pays a deposit in 2022 - You'll have a tree planted in Scotland to support the John Muir Trust in their "work to regenerate native woodlands in some of our wildest landscapes, restoring ecosystems and encouraging the return of wildlife."
