I had heard about this amazing piece of engineering and we thought we would visit. So happy that we did. It's amazing. We paid for a guided trip, which I would thoroughly recommend. I cannot remember the name of the guide but he was really funny and knowledgeable. The views were stunning, the walks were amazing and to experience the wheel was brilliant

The Kelpies are absolutely stunning! A must-see attraction in Scotland — the giant horse-head sculptures are breathtaking, especially when the sunlight or night lights reflect off the metal. It’s a perfect spot for photography with plenty of beautiful angles around the park and canal. The café on site is lovely, with friendly and helpful staff and a nice selection of snacks, drinks, and ice cream. Everything was clean and well presented. The environment is spotless, well maintained, and peaceful — ideal for families or anyone wanting to relax and enjoy the scenery. There’s also ample car parking nearby, making it easy and convenient to visit. Overall, a fantastic experience — great art, great atmosphere, and great service. Highly recommend visiting The Kelpies!

A fantastic track experience at Knockhill, a very professional team of instructors who looked after me during my ‘track experience’. Driving the Alpine and the Aston Martin, both a great experience and real fun. Thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommended thanks specifically to Iain and Alan the two instructors who had to put up with me

A Truly Memorable Visit to Wallace Monument The Wallace Monument is a wonderfully organized attraction with excellent access and free shuttle service. At the foot of the hill stands a spacious, free car park for both cars and buses – a thoughtful gesture from the local council. Nearby, you’ll find a visitor centre with a gift shop, clean toilets, and a café. The small shuttle bus departs regularly from just outside and takes visitors up the hill in about 3 minutes. For those who prefer to walk, the uphill path takes about 15 minutes – it’s quite steep but paved and equipped with benches for resting along the way. At the top, there’s a viewing terrace with benches placed around the tower, offering a place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Entrance to the monument closes at 5 PM, so make sure to arrive in good time. Exploring all the exhibition rooms inside the tower takes about 30 minutes, including climbing the very narrow spiral staircase. The exhibits are engaging and well-curated, including a short but informative film about the Battle of Stirling Bridge and the legendary William Wallace himself. The panoramic view from the observation platform at the top of the tower is absolutely breathtaking and leaves a lasting impression. The vista over the battlefield and the river below is truly unforgettable. After descending, consider stopping by the gift shop – it’s the best place to find affordable souvenirs such as magnets, T-shirts, and unique memorabilia. Opposite the shop, there is also a small bistro for drinks and light meals. You can return downhill either on foot or via shuttle. In total, the visit takes about 3 hours. On a beautiful day, this is a perfect spot for a short historical journey and an outdoor lunch with a view.

This is a must-see place to visit. Full of history and the architecture is amazing. The whole package is incredible. Once finished head to Doune or just wander the village.

Stopped for breakfast on a Sunday morning (9:30am) and the cafe was nice and quiet. Was apprehensive after reading some reviews but had a great experience - staff were welcoming and friendly, food came quickly and was freshly cooked and really tasty (small breakfast and a sausage sandwich). Would definitely visit again!

An absolutely fantastic distillery tour! The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I seriously recommend this experience. Our guide was clearly passionate about their product, and we learned so much about how they make their whisky — all done the old-fashioned way, which was fascinating to see. On top of that, there’s a lovely perfume store and a crystal shop on site, which made the visit even more

I "had" to visit the Castle and Museum as a member of staff at Culloden had spotted earlier this year that I was wearing the colours of The Black Watch at that time. I didn't know so I was going to buy a new scarf. Also a friend asked me to do some research, there. Both members of staff on reception deserve a favourable mention. One asked if I wanted to leave my small bag of drinks in the "back office" while I went around the place. She, or maybe both, took the photos of me there. The other one took it on board to book a taxi from their list of local contacts, for my trip into town. It turned out to be the same firm and one of the drivers I had seen the previous day. I was picked up from the entrance to the Castle and Museum. It is customer service like that which helps improve the day even if help is not needed. I said that I wanted to do some research relating to the First World War, was then given a map and the appropriate room was indicated on that map. There is a lift, which could be most helpful on my back down. When the time came, I opted to walk down a spiral staircase rather than look for the lift. The staircase was much wider than the one I had seen the day before AND carpeted. Even the walk that I had chosen to get me to the Museum improved my sense of well being as it briefly took me alongside the river. I'll leave it to you to decide which of the two photos of me sitting down you prefer. If this suits your taste, it is a lovely place to visit. It worked well for me.

Beautiful grounds to explore. Play park for kids, a maze which is very tricky and nearly drove me insane, also a lovely flower garden. Spent an enjoyable afternoon here, a trail for kids. It was lovely to see the peacocks and the stunning white peacock.

We try to come to Killin every year and this is a fantastic pub. The food is good, the views are stunning, the beers are great and my personal favourite part is the Smoke House. Probably the best smoked salmon you can buy in the UK! While we've never stayed in the rooms, we will always come here for a pint when visiting. 🍻

Absolutely fantastic place to step back into the past. Staff are friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable. Cafe is vary reasonably priced as is the gift shop. Plenty of good free parking and easy to find. We'll worth a visit for all ages.

Such an amazing place. So ingenious. We never saw any fish on our visit but it was cold so I reckon the fish were smarter than us

Edradour has been closed for tours for a couple years now. The stated reason was lack of staff, but I have been told that since this distillery is so small and demand is so high, they have simply been selling faster than they can make it. They produce in a year what other distilleries produce in a day, so they say. If you want to try their wares, Robertsons on the high street in Pitlochry offers tastes and is their next point of sale with plenty of bottles available. When/if they finally open again for tours, you can access the distillery via a pathway that also goes to a massive waterfall and sort of connects to the Blair Atholl distillery, so that would be a fun walk for whiskey and nature lovers.

Off the A9 about 5 miles on a windy road that sometimes only one car can pass by but well worth it. The views are amazing and takes your breath away. Paid parking, 3£ and done by app on the phone.

One of the best castles we visited in Scotland — and my wife’s absolute favorite. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, both at the parking area and the castle entrance, which set a great tone for the visit. The interior was spectacular, with beautifully decorated rooms full of intricate details. It truly felt like people were still living there — the presence of everyday household items added a unique, personal touch that made this castle stand out from all the others we toured. The experience was enhanced by a well-done audio guide that provided rich historical context about the castle and the family who lived there. To our delight, a piper played in front of the castle every full hour — an unexpected but wonderful bonus that added to the atmosphere. The gardens were also stunning and provided a peaceful and picturesque end to our visit. Overall, a fantastic experience that we highly recommend to anyone exploring Scotland’s castles.

Excellent tour and our guide, Georgie, was fantastic. The pace of the tour was well balanced with informative highlights throughout. Very reasonably priced and the souvenir glass at the end is a very nice touch. All staff were very accommodating.

We were actually on our way to visit the Linn of Dee when by chance, we saw this castle nestling in the trees. It was a gem and definitely worth visiting. We paid for parking before the short walk to the castle, passing the Fog House, a small timber building the owners used to show their visitors the countryside. Back to the castle, we paid for our visit and with a guide sheet, we had to follow the custom. Before every person or family start their tour, they have to ding the Braemar Castle "ships bell" just outside the main door. (The bell is from the SS Braemar Castle which was sold for scrap in 1924). With the bell rung, we began our tour. What was interesting was "how homely" the rooms felt, like visiting an elderly relatives home. Although the castle was small, good use of the round towers was made, as washing places. There were some interesting facts to note as we walked around. This Castle is community funded and volunteer run. They have a little shop offering a small selection of gifts. There is a small children play area with a chess set. This is a place that's worth visiting.

The museum is free of charge. However, car parking costs £2 which supports the running cost of the barn, and you can contribute donation if you want to. The museum and barn are lovely, lots of animals, interesting facts about the past, history, benches to do picnic, cafeteria is on site too with the bathroom. It's worth visiting and supporting local businesses. The gift shop is a must to visit. I loved it 😍

Fantastic views. Worth the trek! Ensure adequate clothing as it much cooler and that you have the right footwear. It is fairly challenging going down hill with snow & ice.

Had an amazing time exploring the park. The habitats are very beautiful and makes it less stressful for the animals. I would definitely give yourself about two hours alone to walk around the park and more time if you plan on doing any activities. Definitely worth the drive.

Great tour! The boat ride was smooth and the crew was very friendly. They do have a bar on the first deck which is enclosed and the second deck is covered but open on the sides. They have sonar running in case Nessie makes an appearance which was fun. The guide gave a great summary of the fish found in the Loch and the research that was being done. He of course also included a short history of Nessie. I grew up reading about Loch Ness, so this was a truly enjoyable experience for me. The views are beautiful and I am very glad that I went on this cruise!

This is an amazing and fun place to go, no hidden fees just fun for all ages, We had a family trip 7 adults and 6 kids age ranging from 3 til 12. The kids loved every part - play park, water slides, maze, shooting range, tree top nets, dinosaurs and the illusion. The adults had fun doing the tree top course and the sky dive. Everything was amazing. The one problem from our visit was it was swarming with wasps. They were everywhere. Would recommend for any age 👌

A lake that was once famous for its cryptid monster. One of the deepest lake in the world and has beautiful scenery. Several historical sites are also nested next to the loch. A long lake that was formed by fault. We cruised on the loch and it was a nice experience.

Great to learn about the history of the castle. We used the audio guide, which was very good and informative. We ate at the restaurant before starting the tour. I must say it was very good, I also loved the cinnamon bun! The day we were there, was also a 'meet the author' day where you could buy a book and have it signed. Pretty amazing. I reconmend a visit, it was fascinating for me.

The Loch Ness Centre delivers an exceptional experience that perfectly balances entertainment with education. What impressed me most was how thoughtfully they’ve crafted the exhibits to engage visitors of all ages while maintaining scientific integrity. My children were completely captivated by the storytelling approach. Rather than simply presenting the legend as fact or dismissing it entirely, the centre skillfully weaves together folklore, historical accounts, and genuine scientific research. This approach sparked fascinating discussions with my kids about critical thinking, the difference between stories and evidence, and how legends develop over time. The interactive elements work brilliantly for families. The kids were actively engaged throughout, asking questions and forming their own opinions about what might be lurking in those dark waters. What started as excitement about monsters evolved into genuine curiosity about research methods, sonar technology, and the importance of evidence-based conclusions. The centre succeeds in teaching valuable lessons about skeptical inquiry without crushing the magic and wonder that draws people to Loch Ness in the first place. My children left with a deeper appreciation for both the cultural significance of the Nessie legend and the scientific process.

Enjoyed a lovely walk along the River Ness with wonderful views all around. Peaceful and scenic!

I truly enjoyed my experience at Culloden. While on a highland tour one of our stops was at this battle field. It was such a wonderful treat to trace back the roots of my family line. Seeing the rocks and markers of the Scottish clans and English armies allowed for the imagination to vision where everyone stood and marched during the battle. The inside museum was educational and well presented.

An amazing place to visit. The best Fort I have ever visited. The museum is worth the entrance fee alone. The grounds are perfectly maintained and the site is easy to walk around. Visiting during the week was a great option as it was very quiet. The cafe was clean and tidy. A shame there wasn’t vegan options to enjoy
