A Jacobite Adventure

On this private tour of Scotland you’ll see some of the most important sites in the Jacobite story and learn how the risings changed the shape of Scotland’s culture forever.

The Jacobite Risings of the 17th and 18th centuries had an impact on the whole of Scotland, making their mark on the land forever. On this tour of Edinburgh and the Highlands you’ll see first hand many of the strongholds and battlefields involved in the risings, as well as other sites that help us piece together the Jacobite cause and its consequences. 

The Jacobites came from a variety of backgrounds, regions and clans; what united them was their endeavour to restore the Stuarts to the Scottish (and British) thrones. Risings, bloody battles with the British Government forces, timely retreats and epic escapes ensued over a period of several decades. 

On this private tour of Scotland you’ll see some of the most important sites in the Jacobite story and learn how the risings changed the shape of Scotland’s culture forever.
