The Kelpies
Discounted Kelpie Tour tickets can be purchased by calling our Visitor Centre on 01324 590600 and quoting “Forth Boat Tours”.
Come and see the World’s largest equine sculptures up close. Join our guided walking tour that takes you through the vision of artist Andy Scott and how history and industry impacted on his designing of these breath-taking sculptures. The pinnacle of the tour is that you get to experience a Kelpie from the inside to marvel at the complexity and engineering used to create these fantastic pieces of art.
The Kelpies can be found in The Helix Park in Falkirk. We are ideally located in the central belt of Scotland – around 19 miles from Edinburgh and 35 miles from Glasgow airports. The Helix opened in 2013, borne from an idea to create a local urban green space that connects and engages with its local communities.

Scotland’s most exciting example of 21st Century engineering, The Falkirk Wheel is more than just the world’s only rotating boat lift; it’s a towering symbol celebrating the renaissance of the nation’s 250-year-old canals.
Combining engineering ingenuity and architectural imagination, the working sculpture stands over 35m high, holds enough water to fill an Olympic swimming pool but only uses the same energy to turn as it takes to boil eight kettles.
One of the world’s most important canal structures and a key tourism landmark, more than 500,000 visitors take a trip to the Wheel each year to watch in wonder as the structure transports boats between the Forth & Clyde and Union Canals or experience the journey first hand on a unique boat trip.
With a selection of eateries, kid’s activity zone, water play park and mini canal, visitor centre and waterwalkerz, canoeing, woodland walks and Segway tours, plus regular events and activities, there’s no shortage of things to see and do at this unique attraction.

Stirling Castle & Linlithgow Palace
Stirling is one of Scotland’s greatest stone castles – an icon integral to how we understand the nation’s story. Generations of Scottish monarchs have enlarged, adapted and embellished Stirling Castle. Explore its three main enclosures, and then admire the refurbished Royal Palace – childhood home of Mary Queen of Scots. The palace’s lavish design drew on European Renaissance fashions to show off James V’s power and good taste.
Explore the magnificent ruins of the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots. Linlithgow Palace was built and added to over two centuries by the Stewart kings, resulting in a superb Renaissance residence.
