YOUR VIRTUAL TOUR GUIDE
FOR SCOTLAND
For fans of Scotland, Whisky, Outlander, Clan Ancestry,
Landscapes, Castles, Scottish History and more…

Welcome to Virtual Tours of Scotland, thank you for dropping by. This site contains two catalogues of virtual tours that you can purchase to watch; we have live scheduled virtual tours delivered at a set time via Zoom. Then we have a catalogue of similar tours that are available for you to rent and watch at a time  that suits you.

Virtual Tours of Scotland is brought to you by Tour the Scottish Highlands Ltd. which is owned and run by Andrew and Diane Nicholson (aka Andy & Di).

Best known for our Outlander-themed small group minibus tours, during lock down in 2020, we started to develop and deliver high quality virtual tours. These have been very well received and viewed by more than 2000 people from all around the world.

Based on the success of these tours, connecting people to Scotland and its history and the constant demand for new content, we have continued to develop new virtual tours of Scotland and in mid-2021 we launched this Virtual Tours of Scotland website.

Below, you will see a brief summary of the virtual tours that we offer. You can click on each of them find out more. Or, use the following links, or the menu options above, to browse our two catalogues of scheduled live (Zoom) or video-on-demand (VoD) pre-recorded Virtual Tours of Scotland.
