Family Focused Days Out
Our stay at home family focused tours will allow you and your family to explore your local city or possibly a bit further afield hosted by our guide. Our city days come with a fun filled activity book which will keep the kids interested for the whole day while our scenic explorer days will have you visit some of the hidden gems you would otherwise pass by.
We have changed our pricing structure to better suit the home market and our family tours focus around free activities where possible.
Family Focused City Trips
Explore Stirling: Stirling Castle was a very important fortification during the battles for Scottish independence and changed hands 8 times between the Scot’s and the invading English armies. We will explore the castle and a near by battlefield where we can take part in a computer simulated battle re-enactment. Scotland also has a rich history of myths and legends, we will visit the magnificent Kelpies and the surrounding area including the Helix Park
Explore Glasgow: Glasgow has been revitalized since the early 1990’s when it was declared the European City of Culture. As such it is a fantastic city to explore. On this tour we will explore the magnificent Glasgow Cathedral dating back to the 11 hundreds and it’s surrounding area before heading out west to the fantastic transport museum where the kids will face a fairly tough treasure hunt. From here we will head to the southside of the city for lunch and a trip to the Science Centre.
Explore Edinburgh: Dynamic Earth is a fantastic starting point and kids of all ages will love exploring this science based museum. When we leave Dynamic Earth we will pass by The Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Scottish Parliament Building as we start our walk up the Royal Mile. We will stop in at the museum of childhood and take a nostalgic trip back to when we were kids and toys were, well simpler is the best description. Again kids love to see what us old folk did when we were younger before the internet took over the world. With a stop for lunch in a family friendly restaurant we will move on to the National Museum of Scotland and Greyfriar’s Bobby before completing our tour with a visit to Edinburgh Castle.
