Travelers uncover the medieval heart of Stirling on a private three-hour walking tour through its historic old town and magnificent castle. Accompanied by an expert local guide, they’ll explore cobbled streets once walked by Mary Queen of Scots, William Wallace, and Robert the Bruce. Learn how Stirling, dramatically perched on volcanic rock, became the “key to Scotland” and the site of decisive victories at Stirling Bridge and Bannockburn. Guests discover the rhythms of daily life in the medieval marketplace and hear darker tales of public executions and grave robbers. The experience continues at Stirling Castle, one of Scotland’s grandest royal residences. Here, travelers wander through restored Renaissance halls, royal apartments, and castle courtyards while enjoying sweeping views of the lowlands and highlands. With its rich blend of history, legend, and architecture, this private experience offers a fascinating journey through centuries of Scottish power, intrigue, and pride.
