Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle & Kelpies Tour saindo de Edimburgo
Descrição
O passeio Loch Lomond de Edimburgo tem um pouco de tudo o que a Escócia tem a oferecer, desde um cruzeiro de lazer no bonnie Loch Lomond até as montanhas das 'Highlands em miniatura' e o majestoso Castelo de Stirling. Saindo de Edimburgo, logo estaremos nos Kelpies, as maiores esculturas equinas do mundo. Nossa parada em Balloch é uma ótima oportunidade para apreciar as vistas de Loch Lomond a Ben Lomond à distância. Você pode aprender sobre os vikings sem lei da área e os clãs rivais durante um cruzeiro opcional no lago. Em seguida, é em frente, mais para o Loch Lomond e The Trossachs National Park, uma área de grande beleza natural onde Rob Roy MacGregor foi celebrado como um herói e um fora-da-lei. Há tempo para uma ou duas fotos e uma parada para almoço nesta área. Terminamos nosso dia no Castelo de Stirling, onde você pode voltar no tempo para os dias luxuosos dos reis e rainhas renascentistas da Escócia.
Opções de passeio
Itinerário
Os Kelpies são as maiores esculturas equinas do mundo. Com 100 pés de altura, eles são uma ótima oportunidade de foto para visitantes e moradores locais.
Visitamos a vila de Balloch nas margens do Loch Lomond. Os passageiros podem comprar ingressos para participar de um cruzeiro de 1 hora no lago, oferecendo paisagens pitorescas e história interessante na área. Se você preferir ficar em terra firme, o Balloch Country Park é um local perfeito para explorar.
Seguimos o dramático Duke's Pass e entramos profundamente nas Trossachs, as 'Highlands em miniatura'. As opiniões divergem sobre o significado por trás dos Trossachs, mas o nosso favorito é do gaélico que significa “o país eriçado”. Faremos uma parada para uma ou duas fotos nesta área, além de uma parada mais longa para almoçar. Esta paisagem inspirou o poema de Sir Walter Scott A Dama do Lago e seu romance Rob Roy e achamos que você também se inspirará, seja para pegar sua câmera ou seu caderno. Procure um assunto fotográfico favorito, nossas vacas Highland lanosas e de chifres longos. Nós os chamamos de coos peludos!
Os passageiros têm a oportunidade de visitar o Castelo de Stirling (bilhetes não incluídos, ver exclusões de passeios), grande residência real de Stuart Kings e de Mary, Rainha da Escócia, que foi declarada monarca aqui em 1543, com apenas nove meses. É uma vista imponente, empoleirada em seu penhasco, e você terá 90 minutos para explorar esta joia histórica.

We had a great time with our guide, Dougie! Our group of 7 were the only ones on the tour. Dougie heard we had already been in Scotland for 2 weeks, so he made a point of trying to tell us interesting stories and info we hadn't heard previously. First we visited the Kelpies, and then we took a boat tour on Loch Lomond. We stopped in Aberfoyle for lunch, then got a chance to feed Highland cows. Next we visited Stirling Castle, and Dougie took photos of our group. We drove on scenic roads through the Trossachs National Park, and made an extra stop in South Queensbury to get shots of the Forth bridges. Because we were the only ones on the tour, Dougie was able to drop us off at our hotel rather than back at the start, so he saved us time and paying for a taxi. We appreciated that a lot!

We wanted to take a moment and share with you our experience for our day tour to Stirling Castle, Cameron was our guide, personal guide if you would as we were the only people on the bus. We had a PERFECT day! He shared historical facts, stories, pointed out many beautiful sites and shared his love of the countryside with us! While we know being only two people on the tour is not the norm, we appreciate that the tour was not cancelled and we were still able to see more of this beautiful country.
We’re thrilled to see that you enjoyed your tour! As a small family run business, we greatly appreciate your feedback and I know that your Tour Leader, Cameron will too. I will be sure to pass this along to them. - Discover Scotland Tours
