There are plenty of options when it comes to touring Scotland's cities. Walking tours cover everything from notable buildings to the ghoulish pasts of these metropolitan areas, while themed excursions such as the food tours offer a different angle. One of the most popular ways to see Scotland’s many cities is by a hop-on hop-off bus. These double-decker, open air buses tour the hottest spots, allowing you to see all the sites at your leisure.
Beyond the city limits
A trip to Scotland would not be complete without taking in the country's natural beauty. From the rugged highlands to the picturesque lochs, the beauty of the Scottish landscape is among the best in the world. Amidst it all, exceptional examples of Victorian architecture stand tall against the lush surroundings.
Experiencing the beauty of Scotland first hand is a pleasure with numerous tour options providing passage to many of the country’s best sites. See it all from the comfort of a steam train as it traverses the highlands. Alternatively, day trips let you drive to key destinations such as Stirling Castle and the highland lochs.
