Scotland History Tours is here for people who want to learn about Scottish history and get ideas for Scottish history tours. I try to make videos which tell you tales from Scotland's past and give you information about key dates in Scottish history and historical places to visit in Scotland. Not all videos are tales from Scotland's history, some of them are about men from Scotland's past or women from Scotland's past. Basically the people who made Scotland. From April 2020 onward I've tried to give ideas for historic days out in Scotland. Essentially these are days out in Scotland for adults who are interested in historical places to visit in Scotland.
As a Scottish history tour guide people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation of your from the US. So I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.
I nominate Blackford Bruce as Scotland's best TRUE storyteller!
Yay! I don't even care if I win. It was just nice to be nominated
Amen to that,friend. He's excellent, unique and Smart!!!👍🏾🤓👍🏻✌🏻✌🏾
I recently became a father of 2 boys and one thing I am looking forward too is road trips across Scotland to help them learn their heritage. You are very inspiring mate, keep up the amazing work!
I'm nearly greetin'😥
Welcome ! you will be able to tell them and prove to them that 'a whole bunch' of the Redcoats were Scottish too especialy Scots from Edinburgh,Glasgow and Ayrshire.

Bruce as a Charles Murray (which you know) my family rests in the other church just along the road from Tullibardine at the Church at Tibbermore also used in Outlander season 1. Ep11. It is great to watch and learn about Scottish history and indeed my own family's history from yourself.
Not only does Bruce teach us about Scottish history but he also wrote some of my own. At his 1st Comedy gig in Inverness I met my 2nd wife to him I'm indebted.... I now part own 121 pairs of ladies shoes.
Beautiful snowy landscape, that was entertaining, Lord George Murray is actually my great great ect. grandfather
Bruce, you’re the best storyteller on youtube. Thank you.
😂Wow, thanks
Hands down the best there is. I'm mesmerised everytime I watch them
Brucie your an excellent historian and story teller and narrator my man. I’m a big fan of your work
Story teller yes, historian, no. Thanks for the compliment though
@@ScotlandHistoryTours I do wish you'd stop saying that. Are you trying to preclude criticism? I would not criticise you for not having a history degree. Nor even for not having a history O-level. You study, you explain, you relate, you teach. Sounds like a historian to me. Here's a definition from Norwich uni: "Historians devote their careers to studying notable past events, such as military conflicts, political milestones, and social movements. These professionals work in universities and other educational settings, ***as well as for the various public, private and nonprofit organizations***."
I actually wrote my BA thesis about Outlander and The Last Kingdom :)
Thank you so very much for adding the transcript and keeping captioning on these videos. I'm deaf and some TH-cam channels don't add either one of these
I must be honest I love Outlander and true Scottish history.
Then why watch Outlander its Fantasy and Romantic Fiction,the S N P love it. I read the reality of the 'Campaighn' in 1974,the book even gave a list of the regiments on both sides. Some of the government units are today the oldest in the British Army,and wait for it, some of the are Scottish.
@@philiprufus4427 isn’t it possible to understand the reality and still enjoy the series of Outlander. My father was Scottish and I know both sides had a mix of Irish, French Irish, Scots and English. I live not far from Culloden and some of the facts in Outlander are true. It also has brought a great deal of tourists to Scotland looking at the film sites etc. I also enjoyed Harry Potter and the Narnia books so I do understand the difference between fact and fiction. At seventy years of age I have also read the true history of Scotland. Also visited historic sites understanding exactly what the Scottish people lost.
LOL. The scenery is good in Outlander. Thank God at least hunky young actor who portrays Jamie is a Scot in real life. Hal my dNA and actual genealogy reveals Scotland was home at one time. I greatly enjoy you work. Thank you.
i love the show and honestly i got into it because it was set in scotland, but then i found the history so interesting. yes i do love the romance but i loved learning scottish history, and im glad i found your channel to learn, as yes im american
Actually I passed Sam Heughan in Glasgow last night. He's a big old unit isn't he?
That telly show is a hook for my wife to be interested in Scots/Ulster Scots history.. I use it to my advantage
😜
Brilliant Bruce X
Thanks
Bless you for filming this for us in the snow....burrrrrr!
I know right. To be honest the one I filmed after this: th-cam.com/video/niOW_siz0Lg/w-d-xo.html was even colder if you can ii
Another terrific video Bruce.Should be shown in all schools.All the best.
Aye, I think they've got enough problems in schools without me involved😂
@@ScotlandHistoryTours You sir have downplayed yourself,keep it coming Bruce’s boy.Terrific Son !
Hmmmm…could this channel be a legal form of homeschooling? That would be awesome.x
That looks so cold, Bruce!! The things you do for art!! Hope you got a hot toddy after ☕️
Aye it disnae even have to be hot!😜
As a last corner of the family, still cousins to the royals, still in Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada 🇨🇦… not exactly exile, I was born and grew up here. Love ❤️ the Stuart tales.
that is where Joni Mitchell comes from. How funny that my love for Scotland and for Joni is combined on one page. :-)
Bruce!! Lol. Spat my iced tea out @ 2:08! Wasn't prepared for it lol. If I had a dollar for every hour I've spent with my nose in a Gabaldon novel, I could take us all on a small vacation!
You've a wonderful wit. Keep it up!
😂
You should have your kilt on the day you were making that one , chilly up the glen !
It was freezing
I admire your dedication. Hope it wasn't too cold, and that you were wearing your wellies.
It was pro-per cold
Baltic ?,🤣🙈❄️
Thanks for the history lesson. Wanted to travel to the Athol castle one day after covid. Not sire we will be able to anymore. Next best thing to being there. Cousins in England too.
Thank you. Just seeing this show now. Great job. Thank you 😊
Thanks Monroe
Magnificent Story!
I love this video. Thank you
Thank you Elizabeth
Another cracking story.
Excellent.
Felt like clapping.
I couldn't feel anything🥶😳🥶
love your video's mate outstand work
Fuckin' FREEZIN' work🥶🥶🥶
@@ScotlandHistoryTours you love it
It's the first one where I've used the first take, even where I've stuttered. I don't care, it's staying in! Genuinely the coldest I remember for a while
@@ScotlandHistoryTours a hot toddy and your favourite slippers await
@@ScotlandHistoryTours HAHAHAHA looks it mate glad we jist get rain doon here in east ayrshire.
I love you Bruce!!!
I love you too Taffy😁
There is a memorial to Charles Stuart and the occupation of the city, next to Derby Cathederal.
Hi there Bruce. Very much enjoying your Scottish history videos - subscribed.
I'd like to ask you about the Steeleye Span track, "Cam ye O'er Frae France". Assuming it does have a basis in traditional Scottish music, I would be very interested to know the story behind it, and who the people referred to were. Maybe you could make reference in one of your videos, even if you didn't think it warranted one of its own. Keep up the good work.
I'll be honest it doesn't sound like a linear narrative to me
So, you've watched Outlander! This was the best description of the plot 😉
That's what we're here for Irene😁
What poor Jamie had to go through towards the end of the first series for the sake of female, sexual fantasy!
"Nothin' to do but more rogerin' " #accurate
Story of my life #lockdown
Bruce did you ever make it to Ardnamurchan and if so what video did you make? Love all your videos and being from Ardnamurchan myself I’d really love to hear if you made the trip.
Morag of loch Morar, do you have a tale for her?! That would be interesting. (Nessie's Sister?)
I cackled so much watching this that my husband came out of the bedroom and wanted to know what the hell was going on! "Oh, that stupid television show!" hahahahahehehehelollollolgigglegigglegiggle Love your synopsis!
Id only known the movie which was a favwith my dad. Oh there wasnt that much "rogering" but id been unawares to the t.v. series
There was a movie?
A friend had a bit part in one episode of Outlander. It was supposedly set in Paris
...but really Hopeton House I guess
@@ScotlandHistoryTours Possibly - I used to live a few miles from Hopetoun House for a few years
LOL. They should let you narrate Outlander. It would be funnier. Love your videos! What does your shirt say?
Aha, this is my way to lure you into my shop. Folk often ask what I say at the end, so I made a shop with mugs, T-shirts and hoodies like this. There's a translation on each product page. See what I did?
@@ScotlandHistoryTours I love it! You're a very smart man!!! I shall visit that shop post haste and thanks for the lessons ☺️
@@ScotlandHistoryTours How do I access the shop?
Aha, you've just found the flaw in my genius plan😂 teespring.com/stores/scotland-history-tours
They coudnae he'd tell the facts. They wouldnae suit the narrative !
After watching Outlander all I want from my visit to Scotland is a masculine, rugged but soft and hunky Scottish dude to take home with me 🥰😍
😂 Good luck with the hunt. You've probably got a better chance of having tea with Nessie though
Hi Bruce, Love your vid's You obviously have a prodigous memory; Grreat stuff, I just thought to let you know, Kelpie's are a real phenomonen ; about 8 yrs ago I was one of a 5 man band of Photographers on a photo trek on Isle o'Skye, up North not far from Old Man Of Storr. Near the sea, & nearby inland small lakes. I won't mention the Hotel but around 3:30-4:0 am, I suddenly woke up & had the most frightening experience. It took me 2/3 days to shake it off & get it out of my mind. I could elaborate , if of interest. Regards..
Ooooooooh. Send me the story to info@scotlandhistorytours.co.uk They're no lakes, they're lochs
I am interested.
Do you have any stories of the Blair's or Hendersons
Great video. Can I please ask what is the gaelic translation into english at the end of your videos?
Aha, I lured you into my trap! 😈 This is my way to lure you into my shop. Folk often ask what I say at the end, so I made a shop with mugs, T-shirts and hoodies like this. There's a translation on each product page. See what I did? You'll get it at teespring.com/stores/scotland-history-tours
@@ScotlandHistoryTours looks like I'm gonna buy something then. Lol. Winter is coming in the next few months so hopefully the hoodie will be warm.
It kept me warm during that cold filming anyway🥶🥶🥶
@@ScotlandHistoryTours once covid is done and dusted I will visit. Take me on one of your tours. I have family in scotland. If you are ever in melbourne and need a tour. Reach out to me. Happy to show you my city and talk about it's rich and small history
@@ScotlandHistoryTours A true canny scot.
I vaguely remember Highlander from the 80s but not Outlander! Maybe I'd got rid of the telly by then. 🙂
It was an American thing
More Rogering!
Yet to convince the wife of this as a solution
@@ScotlandHistoryTours Dye your hair red, start working out, ditch wearing pants and pay a blacksmith to make you a claymore. Make yourself IMPOSSIBLE to ignore-"I mean business, lass. I won't be leavin' this room until I have conquered!"
I added Dunnottar castle to the zombie plan after a visit last time I was up.
Have you got the zombie plan?
@@ScotlandHistoryTours Doesn't everyone have an apocalypse plan? :-D
I've got a drinks cabinet if that helps😁 I should have a zombie plan, but I'm too disorganised
@@ScotlandHistoryTours Weel, a mon can hae a wee nip afore thon Deid yins try tae have a bite at least :-D
Murray was at Ruthven Barracks after Culloden with the remaining Jacobite army and Prince Charles just abandoned them and fled back to Europe.
th-cam.com/video/A8j27Oqtjig/w-d-xo.html
Probably some regret , but being a Jacobite is either in your blood or not, when it is then there’s usually no other option than to follow your heart. I’m sure he would have done it all again had the chance ever arose.
What counties in Scotland were involved in the Jacobite rising? My reason for asking is a 4xggf, Hugh Wasson was born in Craigie by Kilmarnock in 1749, 3 years after Culodden. Would his family in Ayrshire been involved at all?
It was way messier than counties taking a stand. People were split, it was a civil war
@@ScotlandHistoryTours Good Man Yersel,if the guy was from Ayrshire and in any way involved. He was probably in The North British Fusilers or Gardeners Dragoons,both along with many other better known Scottish Regiments were units of the British Army. The late Prince had to plunder his own pockets to buy shoes for his army in GLasgow. The Glasgow Merchants were not fans apparently. Sodjers havin a fight is probably bad for buisness.
Do you know if those oaths they swear in Outlander to their Laird by offering them their Dirk are the actual ones they took in real life?
Sorry, I don’t know
I wonder how many Americans know what a rogering is.It means the same here in Australia as it does in Scotland.
It’s not used over here but context clues help translate it
Since my name is Roger it is not unfamiliar to me
is that how its pronounced in scotland, sa-ven? ive heard it pronounced sow-wen in ireland
Bloody Hell, you look frozen!.
Where did they park the police phone box?
I don't believe the Jacobites ever had a serious chance of winning in 1745 despite their martial prowess, just not enough public support outside of the Highlands.
According to Nigel Tranter, the city of London was ready and waiting for his triumphal entry. Course it may be that his research was supplemented by a supply of uisge beath 🥴😜
@@georgefuters7411 The city of London might have been,the British Army many of whom were also Scots, WERE NOT !
@@philiprufus4427 having already been fêted in Liverpool and Manchester, there was no British army between him and London when he turned back , allowing Cumberland to return from the continent and follow the Jacobite army to Culloden... the rest is history.
Charles Edward Stewart was failed by his "advisors" and lack of respect for the Highlanders.
Putting broadswords and targ against cannon and musket with spiggotless bayonet was never going to end well.
Great video, now go home, it's the snowstorm. :)
😂😂😂
@@ScotlandHistoryTours I watched the 1st episodes, the landscapes and forests are wonderful.
I don’t like rodgering. I have retired from it. You did well in the snow……
Great summary of Outlander! I got tired of it after a few seasons. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for rogering but it sure got predictable that all their rogering was the cause of their woes.
😂
This here Yank had to look up "Rogering" on Urban Dictionary - LOL. I initially thought you meant the character Roger who's a pretty annoying dude (at least his earlier episodes) 😂
I'm actually surprised at the number of men who really enjoy Outlander. Must be all the swords and dirks. 😁
In my mind the appeal is not only the female character but more that it's a very manly and virile tv show. The men are virile, honorable, capable and the women as well capable and very feminine and committed. I think it shows that there is more than duality. Outlander shows healty values that are lost and maybe worth to pick up again. And then its just a beauty to watch. Contemporary life looks dull and without freedom in comparison. Well that is my take, rading the comments by men under this kind of video.
Or all the rooting scenes🤷🏼♀️
🤪😂😂🤣🤣
You look soooo cold in this.....
Bloody freezing
No disrespect intended...
I know this video is 3 years old, but I never knew that the English government banned Outlander in Scotland!!! Jesus H Roosevelt, it's filmed in Scotland. Just going to show humans don't learn from history sadly.
Bahahahahahahah!!!....Fiction sux whilst blowing
What happened to George’s Wife? Did she get buried next to her daughter? Did she stay with the Hanoverians? No good choice for the Scots at all!
Outlander is rather odd, all that husband and wife bonking.
😂
What do you expect in a nation where the men traditionally don't wear pants?!
You would have been a better actor for the main male role.
Let's face it, you're better looking!
😂😂😂
Read the books!!! The show doesn’t tell the right story
When is more rodgering not a great option, think how many problems would have been solved.Gorby and bigMaggie,the Donald and every other world leader except Kim hes an even bigger jobby than Trump
Ah no! I had to read that!
@@ScotlandHistoryTours sorry B, hope I didnt put you off your supper
@@ScotlandHistoryTours me too I'm severely traumatised at the thought of my old pal Mikael being rogered by the Milk Snatcher 😥🤢🙉🙈🙊
I couldn’t get into that show. It’s was sooo boring
😂
