Great Castles of Scotland
An evocative tour of royal palaces, formidable fortresses, and romantic ruins from Edinburgh to Inverness.
There are few more romantic sites in the British Isles than a Scottish castle. Take an intimate look at several ancient fortresses of Scotland, beginning with Edinburgh castle and the Queen’s official Scottish residence at Holyrood Palace, then head north to St. Andrew’s and ‘Braveheart’ country where we visit Scotland’s most historically important castle at Stirling. We finish up on the shores of Loch Ness at Urquhart Castle.
