Stirling Sightseer
Discover Stirling’s rich history on the Stirling Sightseer open-top bus tour, running daily from 23 May–31 August 2025. With hop-on, hop-off access, audio commentary, and panoramic views, it’s the perfect way to explore this legendary Scottish city
Climb aboard the Stirling Sightseer and experience the city’s incredible history and scenery from a whole new perspective. Running every hour, seven days a week, this open-top bus tour is the perfect way to explore Stirling at your own pace.
Stirling has played a central role in Scotland’s story — from bloody battles and royal intrigue to the rise of heroic figures like William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. Our fully narrated tour brings these stories vividly to life with engaging audio commentary available on every seat.
The tour begins at Goosecroft Road, right opposite Stirling Railway Station, and lasts up to 50 minutes in total — but you’re welcome to hop on and off as much as you like over a 24-hour period. Whether you want to admire panoramic views of the River Forth from the top deck, explore the historic Old Town, or visit iconic attractions like Stirling Castle, the National Wallace Monument, and the Battle of Bannockburn Experience, the Stirling Sightseer makes it easy.
Our friendly drivers are always on hand to answer questions, and our fully accessible buses ensure everyone can enjoy the journey. You’ll also receive complimentary headphones for the audio guide (or you can use your own) and access to exclusive local discounts, including free return travel to the Battle of Bannockburn Experience.
