7 National Park Days in Scotland With the Prices Beside Them

1.Day Trip to Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park with Optional Stirling Castle Tour from Edinburgh

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 626 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) Our pick

Review of the Loch Lomond, Kelpies, and Stirling Castle day trip from Edinburgh, with practical advice on timing, walks, costs, and value.

“Enjoyed spending our last day in Scotland, taking a break from walking, being guided around some of the lowlands by Sophie, our driver and guide. The Kelpies are a fun photo stop, but something you can easily skip to spend time somewhere else if sculpture or art isn’t your jam. Not that you can skip it on this tour, but can consider in stops in other day trips available. Highly recommend adding ticket for Stirling Castle and taking the guided tour, worth it. And Loch Lomond was such a beautiful walk and yet another opportunity to take in the immense beauty Scotland has to offer.”

“Tony, our guide was friendly and professional. He was an excellent driver and very knowledgeable. Instructions were clear and he was very helpful. Loved the cruise and the walk around Luss. Stirling Castle was interesting. I particularly liked the tapestries and the musician playing multiple medieval instruments. I like the fact that this tour gave us choices about how we shaped the day. As an added bonus we got to meet Baxter and Honey, the highlands coos. All in all a great day.”
