We’ll begin our journey by departing Edinburgh and crossing into the historic county of Fife, heading north toward one of Scotland’s most dramatic coastal landmarks—Dunnottar Castle. Perched atop a rugged cliff overlooking the North Sea, this iconic fortress played a vital role during the Wars of Independence in the 14th century and was famously seized by Robert the Bruce. Its breathtaking location and rich history have inspired artists, writers, and filmmakers alike. After exploring Dunnottar Castle, we’ll continue to the nearby town of Stonehaven. There, you’ll have time to enjoy lunch (not included) and take in the scenic contrast between Aberdeenshire’s rolling farmlands and its wild, rocky coastline.
Our tour then continues to Glamis Castle, a stunning architectural gem steeped in legend. Famously known as the place where King Duncan was murdered by Macbeth, this castle is rich in eerie tales and royal history. As we admire its striking towers and pinnacles, we’ll delve into its stories of mystery and ghostly encounters. From Glamis, we’ll head to the coastal city of Dundee to visit the RRS Discovery, the ship that carried Captain Scott on his first Antarctic expedition. Finally, we’ll journey back to Edinburgh, passing through the scenic regions of Perth & Kinross, crossing the River Tay, and driving through Perth, once the ancient capital of Scotland.

Very good tour, included in the price. Lovely restaurant where you can get a reasonably priced lunch with a varied menu. Extensive gardens. Easily spend half a day or more here in good weather
Really enjoyed the house & grounds. The tour guide was so knowledgeable & I enjoyed learning lots about the history & characters of the house's history. We were lucky with a great autumn day but also really liked the Macbeth loop.
Was passing by and was recommended to have a visit and I’m glad that I did! An incredible castle with extensive grounds that are all looked after immaculately. The tour was great, Abi was our guide and she did a wonderful job. Didn’t have much time to really take everything in so will definitely be back when next in the area.
First time visiting Glamis Castle and it was lovely. The castle itself is absolutely breathtaking from the outside and our tour guide John was very entertaining and definitely knew his stuff. The castle was a vast history was damaged in battles, renovated and upgraded in various ways as well. The gardens and various pine walks are beautiful as well, during the tour John mentioned the gardens were designed first and then the castle followed. That is evident when you take pictures of either of them, the garden is so picturesque and flows very well. Overall well worth the ticket price and visit. I recommend going early morning and leaving before the afternoon rush.
Bellissima esprienza! Abbiamo visto posti meravigliosi, bravissima la nostra guida Fabio e Isir, super consigliato
Bellissima esperienza! Due castelli diversi da loro ma entrambi spettacolari, uno per la posizione con un panorama fantastico, l'altro perché è così che ti aspetti un castello immerso nel verde e con tanta storia da raccontare. Complimenti alla nostra guida Fabio per tutto ciò che ha raccontato e per la simpatia.
Visited on a Monday lunchtime in the October school holidays, not busy and the tour was fantastic. So interesting and informative, no video or photos allowed inside. The gardens are huge. Kitchen and Italian gardens were beautiful, café lunch was fresh and tasty
Esperienza incredibile! Valentina e Sandra ci hanno guidato alla scoperta di questi castelli meravigliosi, facendoci divertire e rimanere a bocca aperta con i loro aneddoti ed il loro entusiasmo. Davvero consigliata sia l'esperienza che la loro guida
