Description

Explore some of Scotland's most stunning scenery on this private tour. Visit Loch Lomond on a boat cruise, then visit Stirling and the Kelpies as you get to know authentic Scottish culture.
Experience a private full-day tour of Scottish highlights including a cruise on the fresh water of Loch Lomond. Discover stunning Stirling known as the 'Gateway to the Highlands', feed Highland cows, and get up close to the amazing Kelpie sculptures.

Enjoy convenient pickup from your hotel, holiday accommodation or cruise ship terminal and head straight to Pollok Park on the outskirts of Glasgow. Feed some Highland cattle to get you in the mood for the rest of the day.

Next, be wowed by the famous Kelpies. Admire and take pictures of these 2 horse statues standing almost 100 feet tall which are the largest equine statues in the world.

Sit back and relax in your private vehicle for the drive to Stirling. Once there, spend some time exploring this historical city bustling with independent shops, restaurants, and cafes.

As an alternative, opt to visit either Stirling Castle or the Wallace Monument. Both have an admission charge that is not included in the tour and pre-booking is essential.

Next, make a stop Doune Castle; this was featured in the TV hit series Outlander. Cast your over a place which starred as Winterfell in the Game of Thrones pilot, with most of Monty Python and the Holy Grail also shot there.

Finally, head to Loch Lomond for a delightful cruise. Enjoy the stunning scenery as you sail around one of Scotland's famous fresh water lochs.

Alternatively, if you do not want to take the cruise, we can take you to Luss, hailed as the most beautiful village in Scotland. Take in the incredible views of the loch, quaint historic cottages with colourful gardens, and a hogback Viking gravestone - a rare type of Viking gravestone only found on the British Isles.
