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 Greenock tour

Once the capital of Scotland, Stirling is a beautiful city steeped in history. When we arrive you will be free to roam and take in your surroundings or pick up an official tour of the castle. We will journey to the Trossachs and the bustling town of Callander. Often described as the gateway to the highlands, this picturesque town reflects the Scotland of yesteryear. After a few miles along the road, you can meet some hairy highland cows and do a little shopping in the local woollen mill. Then it's onwards through the Trossachs. Have your camera ready to capture the beautiful scenery along the way. We will stop for photographs at the tranquil loch Lubnaig, where you can take a walk down to the loch, and even dip your toes in the water before we head back to the port.
