SOUTER

My name is Campbell Souter and I am a native Glaswegian. In my career I have been a DJ, actor, served in the Royal Navy and was a Glasgow firefighter for 30 years. I have travelled extensively all over the world and have found that many people know of and want to talk about Scotland. After I retired I decided to follow my passion for my country and become a Scottish guide.  I have been following this dream for 5 years.

If you choose to visit Scotland, I would love to show you around my country and  the magnificent scenery of the highlands, islands and lowlands; to tell you of its amazing history and culture and to let you taste our wonderful sea food, game and whisky.  I’ll let you in on some lesser known secrets and, of course, reveal all about the massive impact Scots have had across the world.

I hope to see you soon!

 

WHAT MAKES ME SPECIAL

I am passionate about my home city of Glasgow.

tour with me because

I have travelled extensively and visited many places in the world where Scots have had a huge impact – I have some amazing stories to tell. Come round Glasgow with me and learn about its local characters and its odd humour.

WHAT I’M LIKE

My guests always comment on my enthusiasm.

FAVOURITE SCOTTISH FOOD

Favourite Scottish dish is Cullin Skink , a fabulous rich smokey fish soup.( I make a my own great version).

AN OBSCURE FACT

I love to cook all styles of food from around the world. I will try anything (except cucumber, disgusting).

FAVOURITE SCOTTISH MUSIC

Flowers of the Forest,  a haunting pipe lament. 

FAVOURITE PLACE

More of a journey – driving from Inverness to Ullapool, over the Black Isle, down beside Lochbroom towards the ferry to Stornoway – is always thrilling.
