A relaxing tour
alexpR9513MB, October 2026
The guide/driver John is resourceful and speaks like a Scot. The pace of the tour was very relaxed. The drive from Stirling Castle to Loch Lomond was particularly scenic. John always looked out for interesting plants and animals for the group. The 2+1 seating of the bus also helped.

A taste of the Highlands
Susan_T, September 2026
It was a great experience! Our guide shared so much interesting information along the way, and both the castle and the cruise were fantastic. We especially loved how the castle was brought to life with characters dressed in period costumes. It made the visit even more memorable!
