Edinburgh Military Tattoo
Staged as part of the world famous Edinburgh Fringe-Festival, the Tattoo is a unique experience that showcases music, dance and military pageantry from all over the world. Set at Edinburgh Castle this dramatic performance includes 1,000 musicians, pipers, drummers, singers and dancers who perform on the esplanade. Military bands play old Scottish battle tunes and tell the story of Scotland’s past through their music. Blended with Scottish tradition are some of the best overseas performers who bring colourful and diverse displays of their own culture to make this evening a truly memorable experience! Please note that there is a walk to the castle and steps up to stand-seating. Contact the bookings office for any mobility queries.
Historic Stirling
Explore the beautiful Royal Burgh of Stirling where for centuries monarchs ruled from its strategic castle and where merchants operated below castle rock. Stirling is Scotland’s heritage capital, and the Wars of Independence were fought and won here. The city has been carefully preserved and the history of Scotland lives on through the architecture and local landmarks. The castle sits majestically above the busy city and its regal splendour remains unchanged. The coach will drop those wishing to visit the castle off and then you will walk through the cobbled streets of the Old Town to meet the coach in the town centre. The National Wallace Monument stands at 220ft and overlooks the scene of one of Scotland’s most famous battle sites, The Battle of Stirling Bridge, which was led by the famous William Wallace.
Pitlochry, Queen's View, Tummel Bridge & Killin
Pitlochry is beautifully set in Highland Perthshire and has been a popular tourist destination since Queen Victoria made her Grand Tour of Scotland. As you travel through the glens of Perthshire you will be amazed by the famous Queen’s View before visiting Killin. This pretty village is famous for the spectacular series of rapids that run through the centre – The Falls of Dochart. Wander around the little village and enjoy the short walks that explore the Falls, whilst soaking up the friendly local atmosphere of this special place.
