Rejseplan
Vi forlader Edinburgh og kører mod dagens første stop, Kelpies. Med en højde på 30 meter er de verdens største skulpturer af heste og skildrer mytiske skabninger fra skotsk folklore.
Vi stopper ved Balloch ved Loch Lomond for at give vores kunder mulighed for at tage på krydstogt over Loch Lomond. Entré til krydstogtet er ikke inkluderet.
For dem, der ikke er interesserede i at tage på krydstogtet, stopper vi ved Loch Lomond Shores, for kunderne at tage en afslappet gåtur.
Vi fortsætter gennem Trossachs National Park, også kendt som 'højlandet i miniature' for dens overflod af søer, bjerge og skove. Det er også berømt for den legendariske outlaw, Rob Roy MacGregor. Vi vil bruge tid på at udforske området, inden vi stopper for frokost i en lille landsby nedsænket i dens smukke omgivelser.
Efter frokost, gør vi vores vej gennem byen Callander, forbi den middelalderlige Doune Castle før vi gør vores sidste stop af dagen på Stirling Castle (valgfrit ekstra). Stedet er en af Skotlands mest historisk betydningsfulde fæstninger, der sidder højt på vulkansk sten og tilbyder vidunderlig udsigt over det omkringliggende landskab. Du vil have tid til at besøge slottet og lære om bedrifter af centrale historiske figurer herunder William Wallace, Robert the Bruce og Mary Queen of Scots. Med masser af interessante ting at se og gøre her, Stirling Castle oplevelse er et must for enhver besøgende i Skotland. Vi begynder vores rejse hjem til Edinburgh.

Gary was a great tour guide! There was plenty of time at each stop and his information made the long day quite enjoyable!
Must buy entrance tickets at each stop as they are not included. No way to see Loch Lomond without taking the boat tour.
What a fantastic day my friends and I had! Vixi was an exceptional guide and driver, combining extensive knowledge with a great personality and a cheerful attitude. She was dedicated to making the tour enjoyable for everyone and succeeded effortlessly. She is an excellent driver, navigating both the motorways and the narrow streets of Stirling with confidence and ease. I was lucky enough to sit in the front seat next to her for the first part of the journey to Stirling, and at no point did I feel unsafe. Her playlist was the perfect soundtrack for the day, and it’s something I still listen to occasionally to reminisce about this wonderful trip. Unfortunately, we encountered the famous "Haar" when we returned to Edinburgh. The fog was so thick that we had to take Vixi's word for it that the three bridges were there—we couldn't see a thing! 😄 I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone visiting Edinburgh.
My Tour Guide, Karis, was very entertaining, knowledgeable and a fantastic driver. I enjoyed her sense of humor. She was courteous, polite and ensured you were enjoying the tour. Visiting the Kelpies was an artistic eye-opening experience. A classroom lesson on the Loch Lomond, by boat, was the perfect way to start my day. Soft morning breeze on the Loch opened my mind to the sound of my educator, and captain of my boat cruise. The scenery of the duns was both lovely and peaceful. Karis knowledge of the Scottish History is brilliant, I felt as if I was locked in a time capsule with her and reliving Scotland's birth to date. A visit to the Sterling Castle, ended the day perfectly. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking to quench their thirst for a real Scottish version of history, Kings, Queens and Clans.
Nice and funny guide (Karis), who in totally relaxed fashion told details and stories while navigating narrow roads. Mood was relaxed and sunny. Timings/stops were just correct; not too long, not too short. Bonus points for the evening sided visit of the Stirling castle; less crowded.
We just completed the Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle & Kelpies day tour with Timberbush and have to give a huge shoutout to our guide Karis. What made the day was her — she managed to navigate the roads, keep up an incredible stream of stories and historical context, and still make every single person on the coach feel like their questions were the most interesting thing she'd heard all day. Her energy was infectious from start to finish, and it never once felt like a rehearsed script. If you're booking this tour, hope you get Karis.
The experience was excellent and Gary our guide offered many points of interest and historical insights. We had a quick stop to see 3 Heiland Coos.
Great tour, Gary was great. Got to see a lot of the country side that otherwise would not see. Comfortable, safe and lots of knowledge. Everything went well!
A very good excursion, well organized and timed. For us, the highlight was Kelpies. It looks like something from a fairy tale. I wish we were able to inside these amazing sculptures. The rest, Scottish highlands, as impressive as.
Lovely day out!!!! Our tour guide really knew his stuff and made everyone feel welcome. I am going to book another experience with this company when I am next visiting Edinburgh. Can’t wait.
