Rosyth Shore Excursion -This half day shore excursion visits Stirling Castle which is likely Scotland's most magnificent castle. In addition to visiting the castle you also enjoy a stop in the medieval old town of Stirling, which is called the best small city in Scotland.
After meeting your private guide at the pier you immediately depart for
Stirling, and its famous castle. Stirling Castle is built on a rocky
outcrop offering commanding views for many miles around. It was built as
an almost impregnable fortification, and visitors can explore many
aspects of its long military history, particularly during the Wars of
Independence in the 1300s. But it was also an important and luxurious
royal palace. Visitors today can gain an insight into the life of
Scotland's royal court, especially that of James V.
After your memorable tour of Stirling Castle, you visit the town of
Stirling which is located at the mouth of the River Forth. The medieval
old town is nestled below a large fortress. Many believe Stirling to be
the "best small city" in Scotland. After your visit, you can judge for
yourself.
Following this stop you return to the pier.
