Hello, my name is James and I am deeply passionate about Scotland and all things Scottish. I am very proud and privileged to be able to share my beautiful country with visitors from all over the world. I have been very lucky that I have had the opportunity to travel all across this beautiful country over the years, seeing some impressive sights and visiting some incredible places, including being in Balmoral Castle while the Queen was in residence (but that's a story for another time). There are so many wonderful, wild and mysterious places in Scotland and I would love to be able to share them with you. From the castles and architecture in out ancient cities to the vast expanse of wilderness in our hills and glens, there really is so much to see and explore. It would be my honor to show you the sights of this amazing wee country, and leave you with memories that will last a lifetime, with lots of fun and laughs along the way. Red Cross First Aid Certificate Whisky Ambassador I have been guiding since my early 20's all over the world but I love guiding in my home country of Scotland. Please note; I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of historical monuments. I can, however, accompany you inside and provide a brief overview.

Overview of your Glasgow tour

Our first stop on this tour is the iconic Inveraray Castle. The ancestral seat of the Dukes of Argyll. The castle was also used as the location for the 2012 Downton Abbey Christmas special. We will make our way to the nearby town of Inveraray. With its quaint shops & traditional feel, you can take your time exploring the former Royal Burgh before enjoying lunch at a local restaurant. Rested & refreshed we will take our leave and travel to the bonny banks of Loch Lomond, enjoying the breathtaking scenery along the way. Here we will stop at some of the most picturesque viewpoints in Scotland, where you can enjoy amazing views across the loch. Our final stop is the tiny conservation village of Luss. Originally named the 'Dark Village' the area has been inhabited since medieval times. With traditional granite cottages & stunning lochside views, there's nowhere better to bring our day to an end. I am very proud of my beautiful country I would love to share some of its incredible places and stories.
