Day Trip to Falkirk to Visit the World Famous Kelpies and Stirling Castle
Overview
Experience the best of Scotland on this unforgettable tour, which takes you to three of the country's most iconic landmarks: The Kelpies, Stirling Castle, and The Falkirk Wheel. Begin your journey at The Kelpies, 2 towering horse-head sculptures 30 meters tall in Helix Park near Falkirk. Created by artist Andy Scott, these awe-inspiring steel giants pay tribute to Scotland's industrial heritage and the working horses that once powered the region. Marvel at the sheer size and intricate design.
Next your tour takes you to to the Falkirk Wheel, the world’s only rotating boat lift. This incredible feat of modern engineering connects two canals and lifts boats between them. Take a boat ride to experience this unique structure in action, or watch the Wheel rotate from the viewing platforms.
Next, head to the historic Stirling Castle, one of Scotland’s most important medieval fortresses. Sitting high on a volcanic rock, Stirling Castle has played a crucial role in Scotland’s history
