With Stuart's Bicycle Tours you will see far more than on a walking tour and make the most of your time in Stirling!

Join me on a truly unique journey through one of Scotlands most important and historic cities.

By using one of Scotland’s finest inventions, the pedal bicycle, we can travel through the history and stunning landscape of this ancient capital of Scotland.

Once the seat of Scottish power and monarchy, Stirling sits at the gateway to the Highlands. It has been said throughout history that he who holds Stirling, holds Scotland and this explains its ancient and rich historical importance.

Set to the back drop of the stunning Ochil Mountains our ride will take us to the farther, lesser known hidden gems that litter this part of the Forth Valley.

We will discuss ancient folklore, local heroes, triumphs, tragedies, art, sport, invention and science. Getting to know each other as well as the city and country that surrounds us.

Heading along toward the campus of the University of Stirling we will able to enjoy, what is often voted, the most beautiful university campus in the UK. With the back drop of the Ochil Mountains and its own loch, its easy to see why. Its an oasis of nature to study and was in fact my university for 4 years.

We have lived north of the wall for just over a year so wanted to finally explore outside of the major cities! What a treat, easily the best way to see Stirling and discover it’s not just a castle. Stuart was a real local and a proud Scot…maybe the English were the baddies! Haha! Great experience, highly recommended.
More than I expected & worth the price

Stuart was punctual & very informative. His communication skills are top notch. I'm older & had not been on a bike in "several" years. He was patient, helpful & personable. He made me feel like I was in good hands. This young man will go places. He is proud of his country & it shows. We visited all of the things I wanted to see, & more. I definitely recommend booking his services.
All the good stuff

I will always suggest that a bike tour with a well trained guide is the best way to see a city with limited time. My guide was approachable, knowledgeable, and an all around good hang. He even gave me wonderful selection for lunch.
Great tour, full of history!

I’ve been on a few bike tours over the years and this one stood out, it was great to experience the sights of Stirling on an E-bike, Stuart (the tour guide) took us to all the main sights we wanted to see, including the Wallace monument and the castle, we found the tour extremely interesting and learnt a lot about the city which we didn’t know. A great way to see Stirling!
