Dunfermline Walking Tours

Clan MacKenzie Routes, established in 2015, is a family-owned business driven by a love for history and all things Scottish. I've dedicated time to traveling across Scotland, offering personalized small group tours, and consistently promoting interest in my hometown.

Recently, I've been involved in local tourism projects, and with Dunfermline's new City status, my goal is to attract visitors to explore our heritage, form new friendships, and leave with lasting memories. I aspire to create experiences that will not only bring them back but also inspire them to recommend Dunfermline to others.
