Your Itinerary

The Kelpies & The Helix

We will walk among giants as we get up close to the magnificent Kelpies. Enjoy the old Scottish stories of these mythical creatures and visit the area where the Gentle Giants worked on the land. The Kelpies are based on a Scottish Folktale, told to keep young children away from any dangerous water edge but they are also a tribute to the Clydesdale horses that worked in 3 industries that are prevalent in this area. The 98 foot high statues are a fitting tribute to the "Gentle Giants" and the detail can only be appreciated when you walk right up to them. There is a visitor centre where the guests can pick up souvenirs and stop for a comfort break.

The Battle of Bannockburn Visitor Centre

We will walk on the battlefield of one of Scotland's most famous battles as we explore the story of Robert The Bruce and his incredible victory at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314.

Stirling Castle

Stirling castle is considered by most historians to be the most important and historically significant castle in Scotland. This stop will allow out guests to explore the castle and it's magnificent palace.

Either way the guests will be able to explore the castle for 90 minutes or so.
