Glasgow and Scottish Passions
Check your local public television station for this Rick Steves’ Europe episode or watch it on Glasgow, once an industrial powerhouse, offers a fun look at Scotland's vibrantly gritty urban side — full of edgy street art, trendy dining, and the striking architecture of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Leaving town, we'll tap into Scottish passions as we tour historic Stirling Castle and nearby battlefields, sample a dram at the land's most beloved distilleries on the Speyside Whisky Trail, watch a sheepdog demonstration, and struggle to lift the Manhood Stone at a Highland Games.

Experience Scotland’s Highland Games
Planning a trip to Scotland this summer? Consider attending a Highland Games, which is like a track meet crossed with a county fair.
If you’re interested in experiencing one of these “kilty pleasures,” you can find Scots squaring off in various competitions across the country. Each year, more than 80 games take place in different towns, villages, and castles on weekends throughout the summer (May through September). And in smaller towns, you can simply drop in and join the fun. You’ll pay about $10 at the gate and enjoy a day full of sport, fun, culture, and Scottish gut-bomb taste treats. I find that tourists are not only made to feel welcome, they are encouraged to give a couple of events a try themselves. (You’ll see me do just that in this clip from my European Festivals special.)
Before you go, be sure to pick up a copy of my Rick Steves Scotland guidebook. A new edition, freshly updated for 2018, is available now:

Scotland road trip 2017 - Part 2, A short visit to Castle Fraser
As every years holiday, we went to Scotland in the Jeep and whichever way we go, it always ends with around 2500 miles on the clock.
This is a multi-part series in no particular order, i may do one short clip which outlines the route of this year (2017).
It's essentially a random mix of roads, ferries, villages, castles, distilleries, lighthouses and other stuff.
Just came back and there is so much footage to sort, so i can't tell right now how many clips we will end up with.
In this episode we visit Caste Fraser, Address is Sauchen, Inverurie AB51 7LD.
This is a collection of short clips taken in and around the Castle, it was rather busy, therefore it was difficult to get useful footage without showing other visitors on video.
The Castle is owned by the National Trust and unless most of the private ones, filming and photography was allowed.

Traveling through Edinburgh, Scotland
This is the first vlog of my adventures through Europe. This one starts in NYC but is based in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is a very cool city in Scotland famous for its castle and good viewpoints. I am here because it is the cheapest place to fly into Europe to travel around. This city has a very down to earth atmosphere, but it is quite rainy. So, if you don't like rain, do not plan such a long trip here. I stayed in Kick Ass Hostels which is only about $13 a night if you are trying to travel on the cheap. At that price, I could stay here a whole month and never leave (because wifi, bar, food, and cafe inside) for the cost of living in my house in Texas. With this trip, I plan on heading through Europe to see some old friends and new places. I will be going to Amsterdam, Brussels, Stuttgart, Catania, and Oslo for sure on this trip. I am in no hurry, so they may not be all in a row. My reason for coming on this trip, was 1. to get a little adventure and get out the house to go where all the people and money is... outside or traveling. And 2. to find a cheap place (perhaps Budapest) to settle down for a bit and work on a digital advertising business called Hearten Marketing where I intend to help small business owners grow their businesses to hit there goals and gain more freedom to live life. So please subscribe if you want to follow my travels! And thanks for watching. Costs and gear below.
Costs of travels so far:
Plane ticket from Dallas to Queens: $78
Bus between: $20
Plane ticket from New York to Edinburgh: $99
Two nights at a hostel: $25

Miscellaneous food costs: unknown (imagine what you'd spend in America)
