The first TRAVELTAPE title, whose success led to the development of the other titles.

The first time the team of Alma Cadzow, [narration] and Paul McGinlay, [ text] and Mark Jordan worked together, the title is an adaptation of Paul's highly acclaimed local guide book, copies of which are also available on-line from TRAVELTAPE.

Starting at Stirling and the battle of Bannockburn, did you know the battle was due to a wager between Robert the Bruce’s brother and the keeper of the Castle, the castle of Stirling is visited next with a rich and complex history, then onto Wallace Monument and we hear of the great deeds of this freedom fighter immortalised in film by Mel Gibson as Braveheart.

Then on to Doune, whose fine ancient castle also featured in film; the cult film – Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

The journey arrives at Callander the gateway to the National Park, then onto the world famous Trossachs, the birthplace of Scottish tourism, then onto the highland grandeur of Breadalbane and over the hill to the Castle and picture postcard town of Inveraray, the seat of the mighty Clan Campbell.

We continue along Loch Fyne and down through Cowal to Dunoon and return over the rest and be thankful to Loch Lomond. We visit the Island with its own pub,and hear of the mother who witnessed the execution of her husband and sons and spent the rest of her life in isolation in the now ruined castle.

Hear the history of the clan battle which cost the MacGregor clan their freedom, as we cross over the hill to Helenburgh, then return to Loch Lomond and then along the Carse of Stirling to return back at the town of Stirling. A circular tour of perhaps Scotland’s most historic and beautiful regions, this Audio Guide is compelling listening and is rich in Folklore and stories of days gone by, without doubt this ground breaking guide in Cassette tape format is the best introduction to the area and the TRAVELTAPE series of Audio Guides to Scotland.

Highly acclaimed by all who listen to it, we receive numerous letters and Emails from all over the globe in praise of this production.
