Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
la giornata inizia con l'escursione a terra di Greenock per raggiungere il paese di 'Braveheart', per visitare Stirlingshire e il castello di Stirling, probabilmente una delle fortezze più importanti della Scozia. Sotto il castello, il centro storico di Stirling è ancora protetto dalle sue mura originali, costruite nel XVI secolo per proteggere Maria, regina di Scozia da Enrico VIII. Qui ci fermeremo per goderci il tempo di visitare il castello, imparare tutto sulle imprese di Robert the Bruce e della famigerata regina scozzese, e gustare un rinfresco nell'incantevole caffetteria del castello.
Nel cuore dei Trossachs la tua escursione a terra farà tappa a Kilmahog per vedere da vicino alcuni animali delle Highlands. Poi andremo nel villaggio di Aberfoyle, appena sotto la linea del filo delle Highlands, per gustare un boccone e il tempo per esplorare.
Da Aberfoyle, raggiungiamo la nostra ultima tappa nel villaggio di conservazione di Luss, situato sulle "bonnie, bonnie banks" di Loch Lomond, uno dei laghi più mozzafiato e più grandi della Scozia. Qui abbiamo tempo per passeggiare nel bellissimo villaggio e osservare le numerose isole e le viste spettacolari sulle montagne circostanti.

Michelle was a fantastic tour guide. My family and I had a ton of fun seeing and learning about Scotland with her !
Our guide, Jack W. was fantastic. Very knowledgeable, from the surrounding area, and very enthusiastic about his city and country. He gave us lots of history, humor, and got us back for boarding onto the ship in plenty of time. Highly recommend this tour!
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
Hi Ahmed, Thank you for the wonderful review! It's lovely to hear such positive feedback about one of our drivers - we'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Jerry. We hope to see you again sometime soon so we can help you experience more of the magic of Scotland! Best wishes, Faye
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!
