This was a super fun tour of historic places in Scotland that relate to some of our favorite media! It was perfect if you want to see a few historic castles all in one day, and Culross was such a beautiful place to stop and explore for a moment. Sophie was a great tour guide, and I loved the info she gave and her playlist! Highly recommed!
