Our first attraction of the day is a visit to a fold of 'Highland Coos'. Stop to admire these gentle beasts, capturing photos of their distinctive appearance and friendly nature.

With your camera full of memorable shots, our next stop is Stirling Castle. Wander through its grand halls, walk along ancient ramparts, and learn about legendary figures like William Wallace and Robert the Bruce.

After exploring Stirling’s rich past, we will make our way to Falkirk, where modern engineering marvels await. First, you will visit the Falkirk Wheel, a breathtaking feat of engineering that lifts boats between two canal systems with a smooth rotation.

Your next stop is The Kelpies, two gigantic horse head sculptures. These striking structures draw from Scottish folklore and the region’s mining heritage. You will be able to walk among these colossal sculptures, feeling small in their shadow, and appreciate the artistry and engineering behind them.

What To Expect

1

The Kelpies & The Helix

The Kelpies are 2 iconic equine sculptures by Glasgow sculptor Andy Scott. Standing 100 feet (30 metres) high, these are the tallest equine statues in the world, inspired by the cultural heritage of the Scottish Kelpies (water fairies), as well as the Clydesdale draught horses used in the local coal mines.

20 minutes • Admission Not Applicable
2

Falkirk Wheel

The Falkirk Wheel is the world's one and only rotating boat lift connecting the Forth & Clyde Canal to the Union Canal. Thanks to a unique fusion of art and engineering, the Falkirk Wheel lifts boats 35 metres into the air in just a few minutes, using only the same amount of power it would take to boil eight kettles. Note: we will not have time to do the wheel boat ride on this tour.

    What a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Jimmy, was extremely knowledgeable about Scotland from its history to its sites and culture. He also shared some stories about his family which made the adventure even more personal and enjoyable. We loved every minute of the tour and would gladly book with Jimmy in the future.
