This was an awesome experience for anyone interested in standing stones, burial cairns, 4,000-5,000 year old cup & ring marks! James took us to several sites along the way such as Luss, Inveraray Castle, Rest & Be Thankful site! A day packed full of Scottish history and beautiful scenery! James is a great story teller & loves sharing his knowledge of Scotland.
