Overview
Start by meeting your guide at the entrance to Advocates Close. From there, you’ll follow in the footsteps of royalty (and even pirates) as you enter Edinburgh Castle. As you discover the castle grounds, hear stories about how this fortress was once the residence for Mary, Queen of Scots, and a prison during the Napoleonic Wars. Take a snap of the six-tonnes Mons Meg (a medieval cannon), and admire the Royal Palace. Afterwards, explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site at your own pace, and step inside St Margaret's Chapel, Scottish National War Memorial and more.
