The Forth Bridge is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Scotland's most iconic landmarks.

The Queensferry Crossing, opened in 2017, is the newest of the three and spans the firth with its modern design. Don't miss out on the opportunity to see these engineering marvels up close and appreciate their beauty and significance in Scottish history.

5.00Ed knows his Scottish history. He tailored the tour to our desires by asking lots of questions about what we had seen on previous tours and what we wanted to see. His walking tour through Stirling Castle helped us integrate the castle’s history into the larger historical timeline. He was invaluable at Linlithgow castle. His descriptions brought the ruins to life. I would not have appreciated the former grandeur of this structure without his help.
Wonderful tour

5.00Our tour guide Ed was awesome. His Mercedes vehicle was very comfortable. Before the trip, Ed customised the tour to fit our requirements of limited walking for which I was grateful. It was the perfect mix of a lovely travel via Ed's car, across the gorgeous Scottish lands and listening to history from Ed (His knowledge of the history of Scotland is amazing). Very much recommended.
Fantastic tour

5.00Touring with Ed was a highlight of our trip. He went out of his way from start to finish to make sure that we got the most out of our time with him. Ed’s knowledge of Scottish history is remarkable and he was very hands on getting us in and out of sites. We especially appreciated Ed’s patience with our kids, including a teenager who wanted to stop for food every two hours!
