Private Glamis Castle Day Tour
Departing at 08:30 am, your driver/guide will collect you from your Edinburgh accommodation for a day steeped in royal history and scenic discovery. Your primary destination is Glamis Castle, the legendary childhood home of Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. With its fairy-tale turrets, towers, and storied halls, the castle offers a captivating look at Scottish nobility and lore. From there, you can customize your return route with a selection of additional experiences. Visit Scone Palace, where Scottish Kings were crowned, and explore its manicured grounds and historic chapel. At the newly opened Perth Museum, view the original Stone of Destiny — returned to Perthshire for the first time in over 700 years — and discover a range of nationally significant collections and exhibitions. Travel into the Kingdom of Fife to explore St Andrews, the home of golf and Scotland’s oldest university, with medieval ruins, historic chapels, and sweeping coastal views. Alternatively, visit Dundee, a revitalized coastal city known for the V&A design museum and nautical museums like the RRS Discovery and HM Frigate Unicorn. For those interested in military heritage, The Black Watch Castle & Museum offers an immersive journey through centuries of regimental history. Or, make a meaningful stop at Dunfermline Abbey, the burial place of King Robert the Bruce and many other Scottish monarchs, with roots dating back to the 11th century.
