Overview

Welcome, and thank you for visiting Stirling. Freedom Tour allows you to walk in the footsteps of Wallace and Moray and relive King Robert the Bruce's Greatest Victory! For Groups of 5 or more or if you have your own transport, please contact Steven.

We are unashamedly proud to live on the Battle of Stirling Bridge. Our garden has the best view of where the wooden bridge collapsed during the Battle. This tour option allows you to enjoy refreshments where the Battle unfolded.

Our Vision is that Stirling becomes the most welcoming city in Scotland. We believe our Tours are the perfect way to welcome visitors to Stirling and say thank you for taking the time to remember our great heroes who fought, died, and survived at the Battle of Stirling Bridge and the Battle of Bannockburn.

At Bannockburn, we shall visit the King Robert the Bruce statue and the Carse of Stirling (weather permitting), where Day 2 of the battle took place (Sturdy shoes required for the Carse).
