    we had done the ghost walk before but as we were in Stirling decided to try the old town tour, it was a a fine day when we started and we were led on a great tour of the town , were told all about its history and its characters, our tour guide David answered every question we threw at him and obviously knows his stuff. even a rain storm did not put him off his stride well worth going on
