Bard of Scotland Tours offers bespoke, private day tours that showcase the rich heritage, captivating history, and stunning landscapes of Scotland, with a special emphasis on the ancient wild west of the Borderlands.

I am an experienced local tour guide with ancestral roots deep in these Border Reiver lands. You will be shown first-hand what is means to be in the lands of the land's ancient defence. The bastion buffer holding the tension of the ever present force of the south. 

Follow me as I walk you on through the rolling Souther Uplands as you discover the magic of a land where King's were made, where freedom was buffered, where magic still lives. 

Tailored entirely to your interests, my tours provide an authentic and immersive experience, from wandering through the poetic landscapes of Robert Burns' birthplace to uncovering the legendary stories of heroes like William Wallace and Robert the Bruce.

​

For whisky enthusiasts, we provide distillery tours where you can explore the craft of whisky-making up close, tasting rare blends and learning the stories behind Scotland’s most famous spirit.
