Discover Stirling and the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park, with your Driver Guide, Colin Graham
As a full member of The Scottish Tourist Guides Association, I offer Driver-guided tours of Scotland’s historic heart for small groups of up to 6 clients.
I have lived and worked in Scotland for over 40 years. Now retired, I am able to use my skills and knowledge of Scotland’s geology, history, architecture and natural heritage to the benefit of visitors to this fascinating region. As a piper, I appreciate our music, too!
Tours, either Full Day or Half Day, can be tailor-made to your interests, and could include :-
- “Homecoming Scotland 2009”: Highland Games, Whisky Distilleries, Pipe Bands, the Edinburgh Military Tattoo
- Clan Lands: Graham, Campbell, Buchanan, Drummond, Galbraith, Edmonstone, MacGregor, MacLaren, MacNab, etc.
