Willie Wallace
Willie founded Celtic Legend in 1998, but has been operating tours in Britain and Ireland for a total of 16 years. He has a thorough knowledge of Scotland, its history, and beauty and a desire to share Scotland’s less well known areas as well as its’ rightly famous attractions. He has contributed to and written travel guides and newspapers in various countries. Born in Edinburgh, he has lived in 7 different countries and traveled extensively through those and 30 others before returning to the country of his birth. He still loves traveling but he is more than happy to do most of it in Scotland.
"Nowhere can beat Scotland for the scenery, the people and the history." he says, but, of course, he would say that if he’s promoting tours of Scotland.
Shauna Ansell
A Fifer born and bred - apart from a wee stint of living in Kinross and Edinburgh! Shauna left school to be employed by Andrew Carnegie at Dunfermline Library, then was lured to the bright lights of Edinburgh and the world of Finance. This proved to be so dull, she escaped to Napier University to study Social Sciences. On completion of her degree, Shauna went into driver guiding and a life of entertaining Aussies and Kiwis. She then moved onwards and upwards to the dizzy heights of Blue Badge guiding.
Her hobbies involve mostly being outside - hillwalking, camping, cycling and skiing but also drinking wine, eating good veggie food and the poetry of John Hegley.

Margaret Wallace
Born and bred in Edinburgh Margaret has managed to live her entire life no further than one mile from where she was born. She loves traveling especially if it means business class, five star accomodation, good food and wine and meeting interesting new people. She prepares, designs and maintains this web site and nags to make sure queries are dealt with promptly and fully. She manages, amazingly enough, to miss out on guiding tours!

Tim Bell
Tim's ancestors, the Bell's, were good reputable medieval sheep-stealers in the Scottish Borders, but inexplicably they threw it all away for a hard life down the lead mines in Dumfriesshire around the time of national bard Robert Burns.
Tim found himself born and bred at Otterburn, scene of a rare, lucky away win for the Scots in a cross-border raid in 1388. This makes him an Englishman by ten miles. He came to live in Edinburgh twenty years ago with a missionary fervour, and although he has made progress, he reckons there is still work to do. The Scots reckon he's only just getting over the excitement of living at home.
Viola Lier
Viola claims to have been left behind on mainland Europe by the Celts when they moved west in early history. When she finally caught up and made it to Glasgow, a stay supposed to last one year turned into twelve - still counting.
Having worked in a total of 11 central European countries, having tested her organisational and project management skills and lost some of her 'nagging Teutonic traits' (but nothing of her efficiency!) she decided to devote herself fully to sharing Scotland with our visitors.
Amongst other things Viola looks after the accompanying tourism programme for the Edinburgh International Harp Festival. Living in Glasgow she says 'you have to see beautiful Edinburgh and you have to experience lively Glasgow.' She will make sure you do both and much more when you come on your legendary holiday to Scotland.
