As my Best of Scotland in 10 Days tour winds down, it strikes me how quickly it’s all gone. Here are a few memorable photos from late in the tour.
I’ve seen a lot of things for my first time during this tour. One thing I didn’t expect to see was a fogbow. In front of our B&B, a heavy bank of fog obliterated the dramatic island view. Then, suddenly, we all opened our eyes wide as a wonderful band of light arced across the sky. Someone declared, “A fogbow!”
Here, in front of Stirling Castle, we all gathered with Robert the Bruce for a group shot.
When I shoot a group shot, I don’t want sky. I don’t want trees. And I don’t want feet. I want faces. These are the people with whom I shared a trip I’ll never forget. Holding my camera high, I can maximize the density of happy faces.
Awesome final photos! Thanks for the memories!
Ah, Stirling, my favorite castle in Scotland. Great views, great history, wonderful buildings. It looks like you all had a wonderful time.
Enjoyed the trip reports. Picked up a few points for the trips I lead.

Thank you for sharing these wonderful pictures, you all look like you are having a great time. I cant wait to go. Safe travels and peace to you all.
Rick, I am certain you thanked everyone sincerely for their investment in your business. It is a rare opportunity for you to actually thank the individuals personally for spending their limited funds with your travel company. I have always felt it to be a very good trade-off myself. KK
Rick,
I’ve really enjoyed reading your descriptive Blog entries on the Scotland tour. That’s a tour I’m considering (perhaps next year) and you’ve given me lots to look forward to.
Looks like so much fun! I am sure they all had such a memorable trip with your energy as an added part.
Rick,
Your Scotland Tour Blog brought back very fond memories of my Rick Steve’s Scotland Tour in 2011. I wanted a
puppy too and as a history teacher I was mesmerized walking alone on the battlefield at Culloden. I went as a single but never felt alone with a group of friendly travelers. My Scotland trip was truly outstanding. I want to travel to Normandy next. Thanks!
