Hi, I’m Ross – Your Scottish Tour Guide I’ve always been passionate about Scotland’s rich history and stunning landscapes. Exploring this incredible country is something I’ve loved doing for as long as I can remember, and sharing that passion with others is what I do best. For me, there’s nothing better than meeting new people and bringing Scotland’s stories to life. Whether it’s uncovering the secrets of an ancient castle, hiking through the rugged Highlands, or wandering the charming streets of a historic town, I aim to make every tour unforgettable. With my deep knowledge of Scotland’s history, culture, and natural beauty, I’ll ensure that your journey is filled with fascinating insights and unforgettable experiences. Join me, and let’s discover the magic of Scotland together! All my tours can be customized upon request. I have been working in the tour industry since 2007. I do not have a license to give tours inside the Hermitage Museum
