What You’ll Experience

1

Deanston

A fantastic distillery tour and tasting session at Deanston Highland whisky distillery. Three whiskies included at the tasting. £20 per person.

1 hourAdmission Ticket Free
2

Stirling Castle

The world famous Stirling castle tour. Go back in time and discover one of Scotland's must see attractions. Admission included for 45 minute tour. Stirling Castle, located in Stirling, is one of the largest and most important castles in Scotland, both historically and architecturally. The castle sits atop Castle Hill, an intrusive crag, which forms part of the Stirling Sill geological formation. It is surrounded on three sides by steep cliffs, giving it a strong defensive position.
1 hourAdmission Ticket Included
3

Stirling

One hour free time to have lunch and explore Stirling city centre and old town. With an impregnable position atop a mighty wooded crag (the plug of an extinct volcano), Stirling's beautifully preserved Old Town is a treasure trove of historic buildings and cobbled streets winding up to the ramparts of its impressive castle, which offer views for miles around. Clearly visible is the brooding Wallace Monument, a strange Victorian Gothic creation honouring the legendary freedom fighter of Braveheart fame. Nearby is Bannockburn, scene of Robert the Bruce's pivotal triumph over the English in 1314
1 hourAdmission Ticket Free

Linlithgow Palace

Explore the magnificent ruins of the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots. Linlithgow Palace was built and added to over two centuries by the Stewart kings, resulting in a superb Renaissance residence. The ruins of Linlithgow Palace are situated in the town of Linlithgow, West Lothian, Scotland, 15 miles west of Edinburgh. The palace was one of the principal residences of the monarchs of Scotland in the 15th and 16th centuries. Although maintained after Scotland's monarchs left for England in 1603, the palace was little used, and was burned out in 1746. It is now a visitor attraction in the care of Historic Environment Scotland. You also have time to explore the traditional Scottish town of Linlithgow and Linlithgow Loch.
