Lindores Abbey Distillery and Falkland Palace Private Day Tour

Hotel Pick-up
Your own personal guide will pick you up right outside your hotel, usually arriving 15 minutes before your tour begins, ensuring a warm and seamless start to your experience.

‍

Forth Rail Bridge
As you leave Edinburgh, one of the first things you'll see is the Forth Rail Bridge. An iconic image of Scotland, the famous red structure was voted the most important manmade structure in Scotland, so it's no wonder it's now become a UNESCO World Heritage site.

‍

Loch Leven
Driving through rolling hills and towering mountains, you'll pass by the still and beautiful waters of Loch Leven. A fantastic picture opportunity and a perfect start to your tour.

‍

Falkland Palace
Falkland Palace is actually home to the world's oldest surviving royal tennis court – and was one of Mary, Queen of Scots', favourite royal hunting lodges. She was enchanted by the palace and its extensive formal gardens, where she would often pursue her hobbies of falconry, hunting, archery and tennis.

‍

Lunch
Your guide will provide you with a variety of lunch options, ensuring there's something to suit every taste and dietary preference.

Outlander Filming Location – Falkland Village
Wander through the historic village of Falkland, which might feel familiar if you're a fan of the much-loved 'Outlander' series, as it served as a filming location for the opening scenes where Claire and Frank arrive for their second honeymoon.

‍

Lindores Abbey Distillery
Lindores is among the most interesting distilleries in Scotland. Although the visitor centre opened recently, in 2017, it sits on the historic site where Scotch whisky was first recorded. Dating back to 1494, this old abbey is where a monk, Friar John Cor, was famously recorded as being supplied with malt to make "aqua vitae" – the earliest written record of whisky in Scotland.
