About the Tour
This is an exciting journey to the beautiful West Coast to visit historic Scottish Castles and to enjoy some of the most stunning Scottish coastal scenery and walks at Irish Sea and Galloway. Our main destination is the charming, picturesque Portpatrick town and Dunskey Castle. Portpatrick is situated on the far Western coast of the Rhinns of Galloway, you will be breath taken by the views and a line of pastel-coloured houses, stretched along the small bay with cliffs forming the backdrop. We will also visit the historic Dunure Castle (filmed in Outlander) located on a rocky promontory and overlooking Dunure beach and its harbour. In Outlander, Dunure harbour was transformed into the port where Jamie and Claire once again meet Jared, and board the Artemis for their journey to Jamaica. The same harbour also served as the port where Bree and Roger started their journeys to the colonies. The itinerary also includes Dean Castle (filmed in Outlander) situated in the heart of Kilmarnock and we will have plenty of time to explore this truly fantastic 14th century castle and will learn so much about its rich and bloody history!
This is truly a fun-filled Day Trip to appreciate dramatic coastal walks on the South West Coast historic castles and movie locations.
No words can describe these places and no photos can capture these sights.
