A sunny Friday afternoon in Glasgow can only mean one thing - the start of another #roadscholar tour. Two weeks of the #bestofsvotland awaits. Love meeting the new guests. #kelvingrovemuseum #loveglasgow #britainsbestguides @STGAguides #bluebadgetouristguide

Hidden away on the edge of #perth is the 16th century #pitheavliscastle . Built for the Oliphant family, the castle was later owned by Robert Usher, part of the whisky dynasty that made whisky a global brand. @STGAguides #bluebadgetouristguide #professionaltouristguide

Warm welcome to #sconepalace from one of the resident #peacocks ! #britainsbestguides @STGAguides #bluebadgetouristguide #professionaltouristguide

A typical guiding day! Visit to #clavacairns , quick stop at #carrbridge , visit to #leaultsheepdogs , where I was tasked with looking after the puppy (😉), then waiting like a coiled spring for guests to come down for dinner. #bestjobintheworld #britainsbestguides @STGAguides

Rainbow over #fortgeorge yesterday. This state of the art artillery fortification was built to suppress any #jacobite threat after #culloden . Still used as a barracks today. #hes #welovehistory #britainsbestguides @STGAguides #bluebadgetouristguide #professionaltouristguide

Lovely drive yesterday to #skye and #eileandonan castle, with a quick toast on #sligachanbridge with my #bennevisdistillery dram. It’s not a bad life being a guide! #britainsbestguides @STGAguides #bluebadgetouristguide #professionaltouristguide

Fabulous day today starting with visit to #bennevisdistillery , followed by train trip across #rannochmoor , then returned via wonderful #glencoe . Summer has definitely arrived!

Another fabulous day with my #roadscholar tour. Weather beautiful for cruise on #lochshiel with visit to #glenfinnanviaduct . The longest concrete viaduct in Scotland. Stop at #commandomemorial on way home #britainsbestguides @STGAguides

Warmer weather definitely helping the plants, but this tree needs a bit of a trim! #britainsbestguides @STGAguides #bluebadgetouristguide #professionaltouristguide

Westward Ho! Beautiful day for a drive to Oban with a stop at #inveraray . They have just opened pier to public, so new views of the #vitalspark available. Photo stop at #kilchurncastle , and then a visit to #stconanskirk . All in all, not a bad day! #britainsbestguides @STGAguides

Always love day two of a #roadscholar tour - a bit of #tamoshanter on the #poetspath in #alloway and a visit to #brigodoon , with a visit to #culzeancastle thrown in!
