Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
votre journée commence avec votre excursion à Greenock en direction du pays de «Braveheart», pour visiter Stirlingshire et le château de Stirling, sans doute l’une des plus importantes forteresses d’Écosse. Au-dessous du château, la vieille ville de Stirling est toujours protégée par ses murs d'origine, construits au XVIe siècle pour protéger Marie, reine d'Écosse, de Henri VIII. Nous nous arrêterons ici pour prendre le temps de visiter le château, de tout savoir sur les exploits de Robert the Bruce et de la célèbre reine écossaise, et de prendre un rafraîchissement dans le charmant café du château.
Au cœur des Trossachs, votre excursion à terre fera un arrêt à Kilmahog pour peut-être voir du bétail des hautes terres de près. Nous nous rendrons ensuite au village d'Aberfoyle, situé juste en dessous de la ligne de faille des Highlands, pour prendre un repas et prendre le temps de l'explorer.
Depuis Aberfoyle, nous nous dirigerons vers notre dernier arrêt au village de conservation de Luss, situé sur «Bonnie, Bonnie Bank» du Loch Lomond, l’un des plus grands et des plus impressionnants lochs d’Ecosse. Ici, nous avons le temps de flâner dans le magnifique village et d'observer les nombreuses îles et les vues spectaculaires sur les montagnes environnantes.

It was the best experience ever. Especially our guide jerry was amazing, he made the entire trip so engaging and educational at the same time. Thank you guys. Keep up the good work. Cheers 👏🏻
We went for the tour with Jerry and he took us through Oban , Glenco and the highland tours . We had a small detour as there was an accident ahead … so our tour which was 9.5 became 12 hours ! Every hour was fun as Jerry told Scotland stories and he had many caps n Scottish flag for which we took many picturistic pic with family. In Oben we had lunch in Oban restaurant and the pub curry was tasting like Maggie noodles 🤣 but was yum . There is a museum too which has free entry and is a must visit . We could not move around much as it was heavily raining . The tour around the highland was magificiant and not to be missed
Marvelous trip , just a tour from another world , divine scenery , awesome pics , Mr Jerry was just the nicest tour guide you’d ever meet, extremely talented, so helpful , responsive and so funny. No regrets at all for this great tour , so much fun
I would give 6 stars if I could! Jack, our guide, was incredible! Not only was he funny and informative but he handled a situation with the bus brilliantly. The day was just amazing! We got to pet highland cows, see a castle, and go to Loch Lomond.
Good evening, Thank you for your message. We are so pleased to hear that you had such a positive expereince with our driver Jack. We will be sure to pass this onto him. We are glad to hear that you also enjoyed his sense of humour and way of storytelling and we hope this added to your overall experience We do hope to welcome you on tour again soon! Kind regards, Hannah
We had a little trouble finding the bus initially. Recommend more explicit instructions on where to meet. Lots of time on the bus! Stirling Castle was ok but expected more decor. We didn’t have a docent or audio tour so we were a bit lost going around. The stop in Callendar was just ok. The recommended restaurants were packed and there isn’t much to the town. The Loch Lomond stop was also just ok. That being said our tour guide Jack was great-funny and informative. I wouldn’t recommend this tour itinerary.
Good afternoon, Thank you for your message. We really appreciate your feedback, as we want our tours to be as enjoyable as possible. We are sorry that you found the pickup points a bit confusing. We want our tours to be a stress-free experience for everyone, so thank you for bringing this to our attention. There is a lot that we take into account when choosing locations for stops, such as the scenery, the location’s capability of accommodating large groups of people, options for food, toilets, and space for bus parking. Unfortunately, the main locations that visitors want to see when coming to Scotland have become quite touristy areas. We hope that you were able to enjoy the beauty of Scotland despite this and we will pass your kind words onto our driver guide Jack Kind regards, Hannah
Brian our guide and subs driver was excellent. Told interesting and informative stories along the drive and pointed out points of interest.
Hello, Thank you for your review! We are very happy to hear that you had a great time on tour with Brian and appreciated their deep knowledge of Scotland's history. We hope to see you again soon! Best wishes, Amy
Jack W was a great driver & guide. Really friendly and knowledgable with a great sense of humour. Beautiful scenery on this tour although we were a little disappointed at Loch Lomond to find it was so commercialised rather than truly rural. This tour is fantastic value for money and we would highly recommend it.
Tour company was Timberbush Tours - they were Great. Met us promptly outside terminal and provided a great tour. Jack, our driver provided a lot of Glasgow and Scotland history, facts and information. He was a terrific driver - guide!
We had a great time visiting Stirling Castle, loch Lamond, highland Coo’s and driving all through the beautiful countryside. We are still awestruck over the unspoiled beauty of Scotland. Our bus driver wishing people a Merry Christmas and our guide resighting a highland poem (whatever it meant) were highlights of our day! Thanks for great memories! We would highly recommend this tour.
A spectacular day, stunning views, amazing natural wonders and a guide (Andrew) of the best I have ever traveled with, very friendly, professional and excellent in communication, I strongly advise
