Tom our guide is excellent!!! He was right on time professionally dressed with properly shined shoes and extremely knowledgeable about the sites we went to as well as locations we passed through. Sterling Castle is a wonderful place. Our guide even took us through the areas that were not on the Stirling tour. He also took us to a local pub for lunch and ate locally produced food. He had us back to the ship perfectly on time. He used a very nice vehicle that was immaculate and comfortable. All in all a spectacular day.
