Reviews
Incredible place to spend the day exploring! But tickets in advance and bring a picnic. There’s a shop to buy some food but it gets quite busy. Highly recommend visiting the castle, it’s amazing to explore and the views of the city are stunning.
Absolutely worth a visit if you are in the area. Parking is non-existent so expect to walk several blocks from wherever you find. But they have a lot of nice shops all down from the military museum and the castle. More than easy enough to spend half a day here but very cool to see overall.
Edinburgh Castle was amazing! The beauty, the history, the museums and of course the crown jewels are well worth the visit! If you book a tour with a fun tour guide it makes the experience much more enjoyable as well as educational. We booked through Viator and had a great time at the castle with a guide that educated us and gave us a few laughs. Well worth the trip!
A great historic place to visit. So we tried to book on the day of the tour in the morning, but it was showing as sold out.nnWe received some information to wait for 10am and check for availability on the Web again. We did this and found plenty of availability! This was in the low season of October, so can't promise this will work in the warmer months.nnWorth a look if you like a castle.
The castle was beautiful, but I must admit that visiting such places doesn’t appeal to me, as I’m not particularly drawn to history. However, those who appreciate it would certainly enjoy the experience. Tickets can be purchased online; I bought mine as part of a combined attractions pass.
