Join this very small group tour (average group size of around 12 passengers) and follow in the footsteps of great Scottish heroes on this historic and scenic trip into the Scottish heartlands. Enjoy a day with at least 5 fabulous stops including Stirling Castle (please pre-book independently for the 10.30 admission time at Stirling Castle's website), whisky tour and tasting at the Glengoyne Distillery and a scenic drive through the Highlands to the legendary Loch Lomond.

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!

Andy was a great guide. Enjoyed the beautiful countryside, visited a castle and drank whisky. What more could you want!

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.

We had an excellent trip exploring a lot of sites in one day. It was nice to be on a smaller tour with a knowledgeable guide who loves the area. The weather was a little cold, but we still enjoyed seeing Stirling Castle, Aberfoyle, Loch Lomond and Glengoyne Distillery.

Loved this day trip from Edinburgh! Very well organized, without too much bus time in between stops. Euan was a wonderful tour guide - informative, and kept the tour interesting at all times. This was the perfect mix of history, scenery, and whisky tasting! Highly recommend this trip to all.

I had a day tour from Edinburgh which was of a very small group of 6 persons. Our guide was Keith who drove us through the countryside on the outskirts of Edinburgh. We first had a visit to the Stirling Castle and then an early lunch at the town of Balmaha. After lunch, Keith led us for a quick walk along Loch Lomand. The highlight of the day was the tour at Glengoyne Distillery in the afternoon in which we got to know how the whisky was produced and tasted 2 glasses of Glengoyne whisky. Keith was professional, attentive and very knowledgeable about the history of Scotland. Enjoyed this day tour very much and would recommend it if you are staying in Edinburgh for a few days.

I had a wonderful time on this tour!! it was a great way to see the country and made me fall in love with Scotland. The guide was very knowledgeable about history and explained everything well. It was also very nice to be part of a small group and made seeing everything extraordinary! Would book with this company again!

Stirling castle and Singleton Distillery were quite good. Loch Lomond was good but bad weather made it less than spectacular.. Guide was very good but too focused on Scottish nationalism.

We booked the evening before but had no difficulties finding the tour. Angela, our local guide, is a wonderful driver and extremely informative (and wickedly funny!). We learned an incredible amount about Scotland and the stops on the tour. This was one of the best tours we have ever taken and, despite the 10 hour+ duration, the time flew by. Highly recommended!
