    the Company with the Kilts

    These guys were brought to my attention yesterday. This is a tour company that does tours in the maritimes of Canada. The thing is, they do the tours while wearing kilts
    How did you all start wearing kilts and why?

    Many people know Ambassatours Gray Line as “ The Company With The Kilts” . That is because the Scottish Kilt is in fact our company uniform and if you were to drop by our office during the tourist season most of our staff that come in contact with the public in fact wear kilts. We have over 150 family and regional tartan kilts in our office.

    Our company President, Dennis, has the last name Campbell and he has a family tartan and Scottish heritage. He started wearing a kilt when he was a young boy, continuing to wear as his company uniform and has carried that tradition along to now be the company uniform of Ambassatours Gray Line.

    Nova Scotia was known in the early days as New Scotland and therefore the whole province has a connection and affiliation with the heritage of Scotland, which can be, seen in dress and music throughout the region.
    So, if any of you are going to be in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, or Prince Edward Island let The company with the kilts show you around the sights. Check them out at http://thecompanywiththekilts.com/ and let's support our fellow kilt wearers.

    Great link, thanks Colin. I'll have to keep them in mind, if I ever get enough money saved up to go on a trip. I would love to go to Nova Scotia and visit the Alexander Keith's Brewery.
