Have a look at this site:

I does depend on what you want to see and how much ground you wish to cover
in the time you have available. Many areas will have 'local' half or one day
tours and you can use trains to travel between major areas of the country.

Some firms in Scotland a

Haggis Backpackers
http://www.haggis-backpackers.com/

Go Blue Banana
http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~blue-banana/
http://www.edinburgh.org/database/stra/dd006799.htm

Rabbie's Trail Burners
http://www.rabbies.com/

You can find information at the local tourist boards, for example at
www.edinburgh.org
http://www.edinburgh.org/cgi-bin/loadFac.cgi will offer transport and tour
links

The local tourist board sites are all linked from the site below or from
http://www.visitscotland.com/

For rail travel in scotland see www.scotrail.co.uk , for youth hostels
www.syha.org.uk , and for historic things see the following:

They can most probably organise to your taste.
