Go for it. - The giant horse heads were bigger than I expected and very impressive. Stirling Castle is one of the best and most interesting castles we visited. And of course there is the Falkirk wheel. We spent 2+ weeks touring Scotland and this stop was one of the highlights. I recommend both the tour and this stop. The people were very friendly and eager to help when we had questions.

3 bridges, Culross, Bannockburn, Stirling Castle and Wallace Monument - Day trip including, 3 bridges, village of Culross, Bannockburn site, Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument May 2024 William picked up the 6 of us at our hotel (Du Vin) in Edinburgh. Our first stop was South Queensferry and the viewing platform to see the 3 bridges from 3 different centuries that span the Firth of Forth. Then on to the picturesque village of Culross (used as a filming location for Outlander and other films). From there to the site of the battle of Bannockburn and the monument to Robert the Bruce. We then headed to Stirling Castle and admired the views of Stirling from the wall around the castle. Next was the Wallace Monument. We opted for the van ride to the top to admire even more spectacular views of the countryside below. Throughout the trip Willie (William Gavin) educated us regarding the kings, battles and geography of the area. His enthusiasm and love of Scotland was infectious. He tailored our excursion perfectly, taking into consideration some in our group with mobility challenges. We were dropped back at our hotel in Edinburgh after a wonderful day filled with beautiful sites and a better understanding of the history of the area.

Great last day in Scotland - David was very accommodating. We had very foggy weather in the morning and could not see the Kelpies so he adjusted our schedule so that we would be able to see them later in the day. He gave us extra time to get everything in which we really appreciated. There definitely was not enough time at Stirling Castle. This stop should be a minimum of two hours as the guided tour is one hour, then there is no extra time to see anything else. Overall, it was well worth the day.

Great Beasts of the North. - An inspirational experience, we had not even heard of these magnificent beasts, the whole experience was fun and informative. Our guide for the tour inside one of the sculptures was so well-informed and very enthusiastic, she made a very good presentation which kept the whole group spellbound.

Fabulous! - These are spectacular structures to go and visit. Take a walk around by the canal and see how impressive these sculptures are up close. There is free parking close by with short walk. Disabled parking is also available and closer to the shop and structures. The gift shop has reasonably priced souvenirs.

Kelpies - What a spectactular place this was to visit! They are amazing. We spent ages here! Luckily we had a really hot sunny day so we could sit for a long time and be amazed at the way they have been constructed.

interesting and fun - Worth a stop if you are in the area, close to both Glasgow and Edinburgh. Very interesting to learn about canal history.

Fantastic Private Trip - We booked this trip 2 months ahead but were told 2 days before it that there would be a £30 to pickup from the port that we specified at the time of booking (which I questioned Viator about at the time of booking and they said it would be fine), so we were disappointed to have that surcharge sprung on us. As someone else said, it was more like being in an Uber rather than a private guided tour. Apart from that, it was great to have the privacy of a car with our 2 kids so that we could say how long we wanted to be at each stop for.

Kelpies, Falkirk, and Stirling - Too much time at kelpies and Falkirk, not enough time at Stirling. Car was small for 4 people. Guide was polite and knowledgeable

Paid for a bonafide Uber driver - For the price, this is not what was expected. We had a personal driver who took us to each spot, dropped us off and gave us an hour to site-see. Information that was given was read from a phone that I could have learned from Wikipedia. When visiting the Falkirk Wheel, the driver should have been aware the experience is limited and therefore should have included tickets to the experience or planned our journey accordingly. Because we were only given an hour, that did not allow us to fully experience the Falkirk Wheel. Overall, very disappointed and very surprising TripAdvisor had a trip organized as such
