Best Day ever because of the guide!

This day was the best of our 28 day cruise and it was because of Stuart our guide. He met us at the port (sign with my name on it) and drove us to the Kelpies. We only knew they were horse statues but they are 30 meters high and super impressive! Stuart told us ALL about them and we walked around the area, taking them in and then up close. No rushing! Lots of pictures! Very impressive! We proceeded to the Falkirk Wheel. It too was way bigger than we expected - massive engineering design. My husband & our friend are both engineers & they were loving this! We watched the boats go up & down. Stuart had prebought our tickets and we had time for lunch in the cafe - scones were delicious! When we came out to get in line to take our ride, Stuart was standing #1 in line saving our place for the best seats! That is service!! Stuart had thought of everything to make our day the BEST DAY ever!! We have traveled on all 7 continents and he rates at the top of the guide list!!
Experience of a lifetime!

Stewart and Stewart Tartan Tours was amazing! Communicated well, on time, gave us the local fables of the Kelpies which made it more meaningful. As a lifelong horse lover, it filled my heart to see these majestic modern sculptures captured them so perfectly! Stewart pointed out the best spots to take photos, and in the Visitor Center, showed us concept art that inspired global fundraising. Then on to the Falkirk Wheel, where Stewart had tickets for us, and pointed out the best place to sit on the boat, where we experienced the Wheel for ourselves! From start to finish, I was truly glad I chose Tartan tours for our first trip to Scotland.
One of the best excursions ever!

We saw the Kelpies and the Fallirk wheel with Stuart of Tartan Tours. Stuart was an excellent guide, knowledgeable and friendly. Both stops were very interesting and we learned a lot of details from Stuart. It was fun driving through the countryside. Stuart was on time to pick us up. He is a good careful driver. Vehicle is clean and comfortable. We will definitely use him again and highly recommend him to anyone!
