    The trip was awesome, our tour guide Angela showed us many extra venues and gave a lot of extra information. We would certainly recommend this tour when you would like to explore the Stirling Castle and Loch Lomond. The bus tour was also very comfortable. We had a very nice day and saw a lot of magnificent historical venues! Thanks for the very enjoyable day!

    Loved the castle. Wish we could have had more time there. Thought all fees were included, as they have been with other cruises. The description was not thorough enough. Did not realize there was a hike by a loch. The tour bus was very dated.

    Angela did an amazing job with making us feel comfortable in such a small van with offering an extender so we didn't break our nails. She was knowledgeable and very nice. I would take a tour with Heart of Scotland again.
