Visiting the castle took up an entire morning. Well worth the time invested. This is a must see if you even get within a few hundred miles. more

You can't get more Scottish than Edinburgh Castle! Plenty to see and do inside, changing of the guards, gift shop, free tours & reenactments, etc. Great views of the city too! Would definitely go back with my family if ever in Scotland again. more

It costs £13.00 which on balance is about right, but guide books (£5) and audio tours (£3.95) do seem too expensive.If your able to tag along to a guided tour then do so as its very... more
