Activity itinerary

Linlithgow Palace (Pass by)
As you pass by Linlithgow Palace in Scotland, you'll see a magnificent medieval castle that once served as the birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots. Although much of the palace now lies in ruins, the grandeur and history of the site are still evident.

Today, visitors can still explore the palace's many chambers, courtyards, and towers, and imagine what life was like for the royals who once called this impressive castle their home.
The Kelpies & The Helix (Pass by)
As you pass by The Kelpies Monument in Scotland, you'll catch a glimpse of two massive, towering horse head sculptures, standing at 30 metres tall. Designed by artist Andy Scott, these magnificent works of art pay homage to Scotland's industrial past and the working horses that helped build the country's canals and waterways. The Kelpies are an unforgettable sight, even from a distance, and a must-see for anyone visiting Scotland.
