GREENOCK TOUR INFO

Pick-up time as discussed is 8.15am at the port. Just follow the Black and White walkway when you come through security and we will be there with a sign with your name.

We come back approximately 1 hour before the ship leaves, but you have a cemetery to visit for one of your fellow passengers, so we will still aim for 1 hour before, back at the ship.

Sorry but these smaller buses don't have restrooms, we are near a rest room approximately every 30 minutes, but just ask on the day and try to give us 10 minutes warning.

When we leave Greenock we pass the little Castle of Newark is more like a fly-by as it does not open until after we pass in the morning. I mention it mainly because of the name "Newark" which may ring a few bells with those from New Jersey. It is fairly un-interesting but is one of the many ruins of castles in Scotland, we have over 2,000.

There are lots of brief stops for photographs including Dumbarton Castle, where Mary Queens of Scots stayed before leaving for France as a young girl. We then proceed to Loch Lomond and the village of Luss, where we stop for about 45 mins, to see the village and take photo's of this "Brig a Doon" type village. We then proceed to the Trossachs area of mountains and Lochs (lakes) and make a brief stop at the village of Aberfoyle, famous for Fairies in times past. There is an interesting Wool and Sheep attraction and time for a comfort break and a quick shopping.

We now leave Aberfoyle along the Dukes Mountain Pass, through the Trossachs, famous for Rob Roy MacGregor, passing fields of Scottish Bluebells, (if they are still out) and some outstanding scenery as we make our way into the town of Callander. We have a very brief stop to see a Scottish Highland Bull, called Hamish and his wife Heather.

Callander is a nice Highland Town with lots of shops and eateries. We spend just over an hour here to let you get a bite to eat before leaving for the City of Stirling. We stop briefly at the Castle of Doune, where the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail was partially filmed. People like to get a few photos, but there is not enough time to go this castle. We arrive at Stirling Castle and spend at least an hour going through this magnificent Fortress Castle, where the ancient Kings of Scotland resided. The cost is about £12 pounds per person to go through it. Mary Queens of Scots also stayed here as a young child with her Father King James V. and generations of Kings and Queens before that. This is also the area where Sir William Wallace, Braveheart of Scotland won his battles against the English. You can see the Wallace Monument from the castle approaches.

Time is now against us and we have to make our way back to the ship. I do not know at this point what your departure time is, but we aim to back about 1 hour before you sail. This varies from cruise to cruise depending on tides etc. The cost does not include attractions or meals, tips etc.
