Don't forget the detail - it's pivotal in your storytelling approach when relating holiday stories.
Times move on!.
When this was originally written the only tours both photography and driving were restricted to The Trossachs.
That’s not the case any longer.
You will see listed Glencoe & St Andrews and there are more on the way.
So what I’m really saying is these are just ideas (Good Ones granted!) but just itineraries that I’ve come up with.
If you browse through them or have your own ideas - shout me, if we can do it we will do.
What about the Falkirk Wheel - an unbelievable piece of engineering while you’re at The Kelpies or The Hermitage in Autumn.. you want colour, its got colour.
A trip to Edinburgh, the Castle, Bridges, even a few of the Outlander sets - nothing can’t be done given time and availability… so I guess it’s over to you!.
There is one other thing to consider.
Should you go on a Private tour or should you go on a Group tour with around 15 strangers? Only you can answer that, but let me help you.
What I have suggested above is only possible Privately.
You want to stay longer at a location, we can do,
you want to skip a location, we can do,
you want to change the itinerary on the hoof, if I can I will,
you want to be back early for dinner, if it’s possible we can do.
Here’s the biggy…
You will get picked up at your chosen location and you will be returned to that location (or a place on route for dinner!)
That means no hours journey to Glasgow or Edinburgh before the Tour starts and the same again to get home, and if you are doing the maths don’t forget the Taxi costs to and from.
Pack your camera or bring your phone... We're going to take a few pictures!.
