Full Day Tour Stirling Castle and The Trossachs

 Efe Gokce: Fantastic Flavour of Scotland Including a Castle, a Distillery and a Loch

I love this tour because of its mix of history, nature, quirky roads and beautiful mountains and lochs.

Stirling Castle guards the gateway to the Highlands and is called the 'Brooch of Scotland' because whoever held it controlled the country. From its walls there are fine views of the route we will take later in the day into the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. This is Braveheart country and Stirling has a fascinating story to tell about the lives of Robert the Bruce, William Wallace and Mary Queen of Scots, often depicted in literature and film.


At Deanston Distillery we will learn about the making of whisky, Scotland's national drink. There will also be an opportunity to drive past Doune Castle or 'Castle Leoch' of Outlander (and Monty Python) fame.

After lunch at a typical country town, we return via the scenic Duke's Pass and Loch Venachar and hear tales of another famous character from Scottish history, Rob Roy MacGregor. We may even see some rather special ' hairy cows. '

I'll guide you through this extraordinary church, still a place of daily worship and where the nation marks great events of significance. The Queen's 90th birthday Thanksgiving Service was held here. The Tower is infamous. During it's 900-year history it has been a Royal Palace, a prison and place of execution, the Royal Mint, a fortress and is where the magnificent Crown Jewels are kept. You'll even meet the Tower ravens and of course the famous Beefeaters, or Yeoman Warders. And as we cruise down the River Thames you will see the heart of London revealed with a live commentary along the way (the boat provides t...
