Scotland tour
The Scottish Clan and Castles tour was amazing. You definitely see LOTS of castles:) They are absolutely amazing.. I can not fathom how they were built hundreds of years ago and how people lived in them. No luxuries that we have today for sure. The history that our tour director gave to us about the clans was so informative. Di was amazing. I highly recommend this trip.
