Grand Tours Of Scotland

2011INGEN KLASSIFICERING
For centuries, Scotland had been regarded by the English as a place to avoid, and early travelers complained about the savage terrain and uncouth habits of the natives. To find out what changed to make Scotland an internationally celebrated tourist destination, historian Paul Murton recreates journeys suggested by the Victorian-era book "Black"s Picturesque Guide to Scotland."

    In the 1800s, Scotland was regarded by English tourists as an exotic destination-a very different world of novelty and adventure. To find out about the allure of Scotland for early tourists, Paul boards a traditional gypsy caravan to travel through Kelso, Melrose, New Lanark, and up to Glasgow.

    Paul braves the weather by journeying on foot to experience nature in all its elements-which, in Scotland, sometimes means four seasons in one day! He begins on Loch Maree, where he visits the unique "island within an island" of Eilean Subhain, before venturing into the wilds of Assynt and Cape Wrath, and ending his odyssey at the northernmost part of mainland Scotland, Duncansby Head.

Paul begins his island-hopping escapade at Rothesay on Bute before heading over to Cumbrae and finally the iconic island of Ailsa Craig.
