Join us for a captivating evening adventure that will light up your Instagram feed as you explore some of Scotland’s most iconic landmarks – after dark!
Beginning in Edinburgh, we’ll first pick you up from your accommodation, then our journey will take us to The Kelpies.
The two majestic horse-head sculptures that rise 30 metres (95 feet) into the sky, representing the mythical water spirits of Scottish folklore. Designed by artist Andy Scott, they symbolise the strong connection between the land and its equine heritage. These towering works of art glow under the night lights, creating a breathtaking backdrop for you to get that perfect shot with your camera.
Next, we’ll visit the Falkirk Wheel, a remarkable feat of engineering that connects the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. Opened in 2002, this has become celebrated for its ability to lift boats 24 metres into the air with a simple yet brilliant mechanism. This unique rotating boat lift, illuminated at night, offers striking visuals and fascinating stories of innovation that highlight Scotland’s ingenuity.
Our final stop is the Forth Bridges at South Queensferry, where you’ll be treated to spectacular views of the iconic Forth Rail Bridge, Forth Road Bridge and the Queensferry Crossing. The world famous landmarks were each respectively constructed in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. These engineering marvels, lit against the night sky, provide the perfect photo opportunities to capture Scotland’s stunning landscapes and architectural brilliance.
We’ll then make our return back to your Edinburgh accommodation.
This tour is perfect for locals and visitors alike who wish to experience the beauty and history of Scotland under the stars.

Clothing
Glasgow comedian and actor Sir Billy Connolly famously said of Scotland that “there’s no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes”.

It’s true that no matter what the season, the weather in Scotland can be “changeable”. We suggest that you bring suitable clothing for all conditions, including a waterproof jacket and plenty of layers, particularly in the winter months.

Ensure you bring shoes that are suitable for short walks on rough or uneven terrain.

Cash or card?
Although all attractions we visit accept card payments, we would also recommend bringing cash with you.
