Guided by Spencer, our history enthusiast with extensive knowledge of trains and planes, this tour is perfect for visitors to Scotland seeking a unique experience beyond the typical bagpipes and whisky tours.

For those intrigued by things that go ‘Bang’, ‘Whoosh’, or ‘Chuff’, this tour is ideal. Participants will have the opportunity to see, touch, and sit in remarkable aircraft like the Concorde, and admire the impressive Vulcan V Bomber, which carried Britain’s nuclear deterrent during the Cold War.

Guests will also enjoy a ride behind a functioning heritage steam locomotive, complete with historical insights into its construction and service history.

Spencer will highlight other wonders of Scottish engineering, such as the three bridges, including the iconic Forth Rail Bridge. Depending on the cruise departure time, there may be a chance to cross the Forth on the new Queensferry Crossing for a photo stop on the north bank of the Forth.
