Itinerário
Nossa primeira localização que visitaremos hoje será o Monumento Nacional Wallace. Um dos marcos mais distintos de Stirling, com vista para a cena da vitória da Escócia na Batalha de Stirling Bridge, em 11 de setembro de 1297. Este é um lugar onde a história é algo que você pode tocar e sentir, ao seguir a história de Sir William Wallace, patriota , mártir e guardião da Escócia. Absorva a história e as vistas deslumbrantes do Monumento de Wallace, situado no alto da Abbey Craig, onde Wallace acampou antes de sua batalha heróica.
Logo depois, visitaremos o Castelo de Stirling, que oferece vistas impressionantes sobre o Forth Valley e os campos de batalha históricos. Stirling Castle é um dos locais mais históricos da Escócia, que abrigou os reis e rainhas de Stewart ao longo dos séculos. Os destaques incluem o Great Hall, Chapel Royal, The Regimental Museum, Great Kitchens, Tapeçaria Studio e o Queens Palace, que seu guia terá prazer em levá-lo através. Você também pode desfrutar de um almoço no Café Unicorn, que oferece uma variedade de bebidas e alimentos quentes e frios.
Nossa próxima visita nos levará ao Centro de Visitantes de Bannockburn, onde aprenderemos sobre a famosa batalha em que Robert Bruce elevou seu estandarte em 1314 e reuniu seus homens para enfrentar o poder do exército inglês liderado pelo rei Eduardo II. Fique lado a lado com os guerreiros medievais enquanto aprende sobre as táticas dos dois reis opostos em uma experiência verdadeiramente imersiva. Testemunhe as vistas e os sons da batalha medieval em primeira mão, incluindo estratégias de batalha antigas, armas e armaduras. Cada passeio culmina em uma visita à Sala de Batalha. Aqui, você testemunhará a vitória decisiva de Bruce contra todas as probabilidades antes de aproveitar a oportunidade para recriar a Batalha de Bannockburn e assumir o comando do campo de batalha virtual. Após o seu passeio, faremos a curta viagem de volta ao seu alojamento.
Caminhe pela velha ponte de Stirling e aprenda como a batalha ocorreu em 1297.
Uma das gemas escondidas de Stirling com uma enorme importância histórica. Este é o local onde Robert o Bruce realizou seu primeiro parlamento após a batalha de Bannockburn em 1314. A lenda diz que uma parte de Sir William Wallace está enterrada dentro dos terrenos da antiga abadia.

We scheduled the Braveheart Experience thru our local travel agent. This tour can also be scheduled directly thru Trip Advisor or the tour operator, Alba Experiences. James McKinlay is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Scottish history. His company vehicle is very comfortable and he provides water, snacks, and a dram of whiskey on the tour. We first stopped at the Battle of Bannockburn Experience for one hour. Next, we stopped at Stirling Castle for two hours followed by the Wallace National Monument for one hour. We had lunch at the Wallace Monument prior to climbing the stairs and visiting the artifacts. James also added a bonus stop to see the Kelpies at The Helix Park. I highly recommend this tour, as well as, an Outlander Tour by Alba Experiences. James acted in two episodes of Outlander’s Season 3 and his Mother’s family has the surname of Fraser. His relatives fought at Culloden. James has a vested interest in sharing his family’s history!
Thank you for your lovely review. I am so happy to know that you had a lovely tour with us and I hope to see you again on your next visit to Scotland. Kind regards James
Alba experiences with Owner James as our driver and guide was beyond Excellant. James has a deep passion and knowledge for Scotland and it’s history. Story telling while presenting us the facts is a gift only few can claim. James does it with ease. He was careful with my husband and I and walked at our speed with numerous comfort breaks along the way. I wish we had booked more tours with him.
Thank you Pauline for your kind review. I am so happy that you enjoyed your tour with us on your visit to Scotland. Hopefully we meet again on your next visit. Kind regards James
James has a passion for the history of Scotland that pours out of him. He is proud of his country and so knowledgeable about its history. His love and enthusiasm is contagious. He told great stories and helped us understand what happened at these battles and why. He had also asked us if we had any limitations and worked with us for the very best experience possible. We recommend him and this tour without reservation! We had a grand time.
Thank you Pauline for your lovely review. I am thrilled to know that you enjoyed your tour with us and hopefully we get the chance to meet again on your next visit to Scotland. Haste ye Back! James
The second of two tours with James and Alba Experiences during our time in Scotland. For those who've had their curiosity piqued by the movie BRAVEHEART, this tour dives deep into the actual events surrounding the lives of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce and the their fight for Scottish independence. James again impressed with his vast knowledge of history and insight into the Battles of Stirling Bridge and Bannockburn. An excellent tour for those who not only want to visit sites of historical significance but also leave with a greater understanding of those who were involved. Another experience that i cannot recommend enough. For those interested in ANY tour in Scotland, you must give James a call.
Thank you Clark for this wonderful review. I am thrilled that you enjoyed your tour with us. I hope to see you again on your next visit to Scotland. Haste ye Back! James

We had five people on this excursion with James. It was so much more than we expected! He is very personable & has a wealth of knowledge about Scottish history! He took us to places we specifically wanted to see & a hidden gem (Cambuskenneth Abbey)! We had a wonderful time & a memorable experience! We would highly recommend James! He has a passion for sharing his beautiful country & it’s history!
H Kathy, It is always nice to hear a shout out for Cambuskenneth abbey. It is a lovely tour once again, and I am so happy that you enjoyed your tours with us on your visit to Scotland. I am looking forward to meeting you all again on your next visit. Kind regards James
