It has been a busy September! Our Private Tours of Scotland have taken us to Stirling where we enjoyed the medieval Stirling Castle. This lovingly restored Royal Palace was voted the best historic attraction in the UK.
We also visited the National Wallace Monument and climbed all the 248 steps to the top to see amazing views all over the beautiful region. As part of this tour guests can enjoy excellent service and comfort at Abbotsford Lodge, in rural Callander, near Stirling. We also visited the fantastic ruins of Linlithgow Palace where the medieval Kings and Queens entertained 16th century guests from all over Europe.

the 12th century. From here we could see the islands of Mull, Easdale and Seil.
One tour this month included a Landrover safari through the majestic Glencoe mountains. Here we met with an expert countryside ranger from the National Trust for Scotland. We explored on rough tracks deep into the mountains and heard stories about the landscape and the wildlife. We even heard about the filming of Harry Potter in the Glencoe Mountains.
