Scottish history day trip from Edinburgh to Inverness
Scottish history day trip is a variation on a video available on Scotland History tours. More maps and less intro.
History Days out in Scotland is a sister channel to Scotland History Tours. In Scotland History Tours you'll find historical stories and here in History Days out in Scotland you'll find suggestions for days out and places to visit in order to soak up Scotland's history.
Scotland History Tours is here for people who want to learn about Scottish history and get ideas for Scottish history tours. I try to make videos which tell you tales from Scotland's past and give you information about key dates in Scottish history and historical places to visit in Scotland. Not all videos are tales from Scotland's history, some of them are about men from Scotland's past or women from Scotland's past. Basically the people who made Scotland. From April 2020 onward I've tried to give ideas for historic days out in Scotland. Essentially these are days out in Scotland for adults who are interested in historical places to visit in Scotland.
As one of Scotland history tour guides people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation of your from the US. So from April 2020 I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.

    Did those workmen really call you a ***T? Why? Is this a general attitude in Scottland? Did you step on their toes as you passed? Are visitors likely to be verbablly accosted?

    Always a Thumbs Up, Bruce. Border Ballads the cassette in the Brisbane Australia library called it: "It was the toon of Kelso that a lovely woman did dwell "She loved her husband dearly but she loved another man twice as well "Ah huddley ay huddley ay sugar a huddley hi!" Look it up with The Corries. The end is worth the search.

    Probably not going to try to see Mary Queen of Scots' bush at St. Mary's. Pressed for time. I really do love the Days Out videos because they show the way things look now at the same time as you're tramping on footsteps that are centuries old. - And you seem to love doing them. That's fun too.

      @CailenCambeul Před rokem

      The King did establish it. He was a carpark planner and entrepreneur. Why do you think Richard the III was found under a carpark? Royals have where we park centuries in advance to hide their crimes.

    Bruce, thank you again for the information videos. These are giving me more ideas and information to look up for our future, in-depth trip to Scotland. But I'm still wondering why 'Anyone' would give a thumbs down to any of these videos (Let alone anyone's information videos). I just don't get it. So I'll give them 👍👍 to make it right.
