Do any tours stop at Doune Castle?

The Edinburgh, Hebrides & Highlands tour doesn't include Doune Castle, but our Scotland's Far North – 10 days tour includes a stop at Doune Castle along the route from Edinburgh into the Highlands.

We are looking for a tour that includes a ride on the Jacobite Steam Train

It does not look like this tour includes a train ride, and I cannot seem to find one that does. However, AI has told me there are several. I'm hoping you can provide a solution, an alternate tour similar in pricing and time, that includes a train ride.

From booking to travel preparation to the trip itself, everything was excellent! Even when the ferry was canceled due to strong winds, the tour operator made the best of it by quickly rebooking and changing the route to include the beautiful Isle of Skye unexpectedly and unplanned, so for us it was a blessing in disguise. We were extremely lucky and had a lot of fun as a small group with our guide Sean Gordon thanks to his extensive knowledge and original Scottish charm. We learned and laughed a lot! Thank you for a fantastic trip!Show more

Do any tours stop at Doune Castle?
Tour Details

  We are thinking of a last minute trip, leaving 17-May, and returning 22-May. We would really like to tour Doune Castle.
- On The Go ToursOperator•Written May 2026
  For your travel window of 17 May to 22 May, the Edinburgh, Hebrides & Highlands - 5 days tour would be the better fit timing-wise, but it does not include Doune Castle. The tour that does include Doune Castle is Scotland's Far North - 10 days, but unfortunately that would be too long for the dates you mentioned. If Doune Castle is a must-see on this trip, the best option may be to arrange it independently as a day trip from Edinburgh before or after the tour.
