Loved this castle!! You are free to roam in the order you want and to see inside buildings as you desire. Not 100% accessible, but you could spend hours there! We liked going earlier cause it was less crowded. You can stay as long as you want, so later in the day the crowds just grow. Lots of military museum spaces. Enthusiasts will love it! No pics allowed when viewing the Crown Jewels, nor in one other memorial building for deceased servicemen. Everything else is fine for pics. Great picture ops everywhere! Incredible view! We went in April and the wind made it quite cold so dress warm!

Great place. Some hints for your visit. 1. Prepay ticket and arrive 10 minutes prior to time on ticket. 2. Buy tickets before 1pm or 1300 so you can view the 1pm cannon firing. Make sure to find a spot to view the firingat least by 1245. Most. Good spots will be taken by then 3.There are several museums/areas on the castle grounds. A few of them are the Prison, National war museum and Royal Scots Dragoon. I found them to be nice and worth the time to spend exploring. 4. Bathrooms are available  and first one as you enter on the left hand side. 5. The Scottish jewels was the longest wait of all places. 6. The have audio tours you can purchase  to the right of the entrance if that is something you are interested in. 7. I would give myself  at least 2 hours  for museums and touring the castle. 8. Highly recommended

Amazing place. It has lots of open areas and you visit the “rooms”, cathedral and others. It is like a little old town with lots of history. Very different to other traditional castles in the UK. I absolutely loved it. The view is stunning. It is worth a visit and even better if clear sky.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes

Phenomenal castle with truly spectacular views. Most castle areas are accessible and there are many interesting artifacts and items of historical significance. It will take you a good 2-3 hrs to finish exploring the castle. A must visit is the national Scottish war museum.

I absolutely loved it. The view is stunning. It is worth a visit and even better if clear sky.  We also visited the Royal military tattoo that was on. Great show! A must if you ask me! Castle costs around £20 and the show is around £60-70

Beautiful site, truly a jewel of Scotland. Tourist review my wife and I were traveling from the US, and ended up with Edinburgh as our itinerary for a Wednesday. I had heard about long lines and some unavailability, so I purchased the Scottish Historical society Explorer pass, and a reservation for 1:00 to view the castle. We arrived in time and were able to walk right in, showing the explorer pass. Very smooth! It was a bit rainy off and on, but there were plenty of buildings to step inside of and every shop had umbrellas for sale. The castle exhibits were a bit more modern than we expected, focusing mostly on 1600’s onwards but we loved the Scottish war museum and the individual regiment museums. A good variety of artifacts and information. We enjoyed the great hall and the views from the cannon battery’s immensely. I didn’t see too much content specifically for kids, but it was filled with such beautiful views of architecture and cool artifacts I think people of all ages could appreciate the castle! It took us 4 hours to see everything, stopping for lunch and taking photos, but not waiting in lines

This visit was to see The Military Tattoo,  and it was fabulous.  It was a lovely evening and with the castle in the background was just awesome.  Its a must to visit.  In the past we've gone round the castle and it's magical. When you're in the town and look up at it standing majestic on the hill. Wow Visited onWeekendWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedYes

I arrived on a Sunday morning with a 930 entry. They were a lot of people in line, but everything went quickly. While there were a lot of people in the castle, it did not seem crowded. If you love history, castles, architecture, or views from a top, this is a must see. You could spend all day inside the castle if you want to do view everything. There are several museums inside as well.

Definitely buy the tickets in advance! I would say the audio guide is nice but for sure not necessary since everything is well explained in the panels. It’s very nice and gives you a very good understanding of the history of Scotland, especially about moments of war and wwii. It will take You easily 4 hours to see everything. At 13 there’s the canon ball moment, best time to be at!

Absolute must visit if you are in Edinburgh! The castle is huge, has an amazing view over all of Edinburgh and all the exhibitions are fantastic. We did not do a tour or use an audio guide but still spent like 2h in the castle looking at all the possible sights and enjoying the view. Could have easily spent more time though. Would recommend booking tickets in advance as the castle is very popular.
