I'll chime in here too..if there can be any overlap for the OP since it sounds like he is doing a similar trip.

My wife and I love Outlander. Spending a day or two in Inverness sounds wonderful and and fascinating. Any recommendations here would be great. We love visiting wineries, brewers, and/or distilleries. My favorite scotch is Dalmore, but with that said I don’t have to visit that one at all but I would like to say I’ve visited a nice Whiskey distillery in Scotland. Any recs here? Lastly, we love exploring cities. Especially European ones. I’ve heard incredible things about Edinburgh. Any must have recommendations there or maybe even a better city to visit? We would love to visit a castle or two. Just like your visits we plan to be in Scotland for 7-8 days total, not including travel time for the States.
