 Scotland has some of the most stunning scenery in Europe with spectacular granite mountains, glistening lochs, ancient stone circles and unspoilt coastline. From the Highlands and the Lowlands to Glasgow, the annual Edinburgh Festival and the Isles, Scotland has it all.
Our guides have a huge range of interests from Christian heritage to ghosts and witches and will ensure your experience in Scotland is an unforgettable one. We can help you trace the footsteps of Robert the Bruce, Mary Queen of Scots and William Wallace and tell you about Scotland’s favourite poets and authors such as Robert Burns and Sir Walter Scott and let’s not forget the Loch Ness Monster! Contact us for a range of city walks, country walks or tours by coach.
|
The Guides in this region are also members of THE SCOTTISH TOURIST GUIDES ASSOCIATION which has the responsibility for the training and accreditation of its members in partnership with University of Edinburgh.
