Scotland History Tours

Hi, my name is Bruce. For years I worked as a teacher, then as a stand-up comedian performing shows about Scottish history and culture. In 2017 I decided to take what I’ve learned to show you the country I have loved and lived in all my life.

I'd like to show you the magical and mysterious places that make Scotland famous. I'd love to tell you about the people who lived there and made Scotland’s history. I would be delighted to take you round my home of Perthshire and show you Scotland’s story in one county.

If you’ve never come across me before I suggest you have a look at some of my videos to get a feel for whether you’d enjoy spending a day with me.

You'll find my videos here Scottish History Videos & Scotland History Tours

Real Macbeth Tour

FROM ONLY £800.00 per tour ( 1-6 people )

Discover Macbeth with a short visit to Loch Leven, and a light lunch at Scone Palace, the place of Scottish kingship. Then stop at Dunkeld Cathedral in Highland Perthshire, the power base of King Duncan, nestled on the banks of the Tay. We take the road between Birnam Wood and Dunsinnane made famous by Shakespeare. There are options to climb Dunsinnane Hill to the site of Macbeth’s hillfort or visit Scotland’s oldest lending library to see the books that inspired Shakespeare to write the story, or to visit Glamis Castle to discover how Shakespeare wrongly placed it in Inverness, how Glamis is linked to the real Macbeth and how the story continues to this day. Entry fees and lunch are not included.

The trip was great. Interesting activities (boat trip and tour around castle etc), coffee and lunch stops, as well as taking in some beautiful scenery in comfort. Historic stories with a twist of Bruce humour. I think it's a winner !!!!

Very enjoyable day touring Perthshire and learning that I really don't know that much about Scotland's history at all. Bruce's knowledge is vast and he delivers it in a very enthusiastic way. If you want to know more about Scotland I thoroughly recommend spending a day on one of these tours !

Spent a freezing cold day with Bruce yesterday but it was worth it. Amazing amount of knowledge. Great fun and great company. Well worth a trip. Thanks for the humorous insight into history.
