Eva Doyle

My name is Eva Doyle. I was born and raised in Poland. I studied at one of the main universities in Warsaw. After my graduation from University I decided to go abroad to gain some work experience and language skills. It was during this time that I met my husband Fraser. One year later we married and started our family. With time we decided to settle in Scotland - the native land of my husband. We settled in Scotland’s capital - Edinburgh. I liked Edinburgh from the very first day because I find it not only beautiful but also very friendly. It wasn’t difficult to fall in love with the rest of Scotland as well and soon I took a keen interest in my second homeland. I decided to study a 2 year course at Edinburgh University which enabled me to become a fully qualified guide in Scotland. My career offered me exactly what I always liked best - meeting new people and traveling across Scotland. Working as a guide I find that no two days are ever the same. I have been a guide for over 13 years now and I guide fluently in 3 different languages Russian, Polish and English. I would love to welcome you in Scotland! There is so much to do and to see. Each part of Scotland has something unique to offer to each and every visitor. Beautiful country views, unspoiled nature of the land, ancient castles and palaces as well as those which are still inhabited today by their aristocratic owners, breath taking islands, whisky distilleries where you can sample Whisky the world famous Scottish national drink, but most importantly a country were you will feel very welcome wherever you go. Touring Scotland offers endless routes and options. Among my very favorite are: Edinburgh - capital of Scotland officially considered one of the 3 most beautiful cities in Europe. East Coast of Scotland with it’s small fishing villages, the historic town of St. Andrews - home of golf and the oldest Scottish University. Sandy and rocky seaside beaches, spectacular castle ruin and picturesque ruins of the cathedral. Romantic Falkland Palace situated in the very beautiful small village of Falkland. Scone Palace - the place were the Scottish Kings were crowned in the past. Scone Palace was named as the official place of the death of Macbeth depicted in Shakespeare’s famous play Macbeth. Glamis Castle - birth place of the late Queen Mother and of the present queen’s sister the late Princess Margaret. Glamis Castle is still inhabited in 21st century by the queen’s relatives (Earl of Kinghorn and Strathmore and his family). Central Scotland and Northern Scotland offers a lot of the castles and palaces opened to the public in the height of the summer season. There are also many castles where people visiting Scotland can stay overnight and relax in the traditional atmosphere of the land. In the North and North East of Scotland in addition to the many castles built in a very romantic Disneyland style, visitors will also find about 50% of all the world famous Scottish distilleries most of which can be visited. Rugged West Coast of Scotland also offers picturesque views of the coastline with its many islands. Among those Arran, Bute and Island of Skye are most famous for their natural beauty and local attractions. Fishing in Scottish lochs and rivers offers a lot of excitement as the waters are rich in fish especially wild salmon and native brown trout. Hill walking, hunting, golf and curling are other activities that are readily available. Balmoral Castle situated in Northern Scotland, surrounded by forests and hills covered in dense heather is a favorite holiday location of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and her close family. Why don’t you come and visit the country where the Royal Family spends their annual holidays? Why don’t you come to experience the unspoiled beauty of the land? Look for the illusive loch Ness Monster? Go walking/ touring or go fishing during the day and sit in the evening by a cozy fire sampling world famous Scottish Whisky and freshly prepared local specialty food? Come to Scotland and relax in the land which is able to offer you all what your heart desires!
