Highlights

South Queensferry - Begin your day in the charming town of South Queensferry, situated along the Firth of Forth. Admire the iconic Forth Bridges, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding scenery. Wander through the quaint cobbled streets, and perhaps savor a morning coffee with a view of the water.
Stirling - Next, make your way to Stirling Castle, one of Scotland’s most historically important landmarks. Set high on a volcanic rock, the castle provides sweeping views of the countryside. Discover the royal chambers, grand halls, and the magnificent Great Hall, all rich in history. Learn about the castle’s significance in Scotland’s past, especially during the Wars of Independence.
The Battle of Bannockburn Experience - A short drive from Stirling Castle brings you to the Battle of Bannockburn Visitor Centre. Here, you’ll delve into the history of one of Scotland’s most renowned battles, where Robert the Bruce achieved a pivotal victory over the English in 1314. The interactive exhibits and 3D battle simulation vividly recreate this dramatic event.
The Kelpies & The Helix - Continue your adventure to The Kelpies, the world’s largest equine sculptures located in The Helix park near Falkirk. These impressive 30-meter-tall steel structures symbolize the shape-shifting water spirits of Scottish folklore. Take a guided tour to learn about the engineering feat behind these remarkable sculptures, and enjoy a stroll around the scenic park.
Callander - From The Kelpies, head towards the Highlands with a stop in Callander, a picturesque town often called the “Gateway to the Highlands.” Surrounded by rolling hills and rivers, Callander features charming shops, cafes, and a taste of Highland life. Be sure to take a walk along the River Teith or visit the nearby Bracklinn Falls.
Scottish Highlands - As you journey further into the Highlands, watch for the iconic Highland Cows, affectionately known as “Heilan Coos.” These shaggy, long-horned cattle are emblematic of the Scottish Highlands. If you’re fortunate, you’ll have the opportunity to stop and photograph these gentle giants in their natural surroundings.
National Wallace Monument - Next, visit the National Wallace Monument, a towering tribute to William Wallace, the legendary Scottish hero. Climb the 246 steps to the top of the monument for stunning views of Stirling and the surrounding area. Inside, explore exhibits that chronicle Wallace’s life and his role in the fight for Scottish independence.
Killin - Beautiful Highland Village: Conclude your day in the beautiful village of Killin, located at the western end of Loch Tay. This picturesque village is renowned for the Falls of Dochart, a series of lovely waterfalls that flow through the heart of the village. Encircled by mountains, Killin offers a serene and breathtaking setting, ideal for a peaceful walk or simply soaking in the natural beauty.
