One of Stirlings top tourist attractions is Stirling Castle. Situated above the old town this castle is home to many Royal members and houses many rooms that are open to visitors. Due to the castle having steep hills and cobbled streets it is worth asking about accessibility if needed. There are many coach car parks available near by aswell as other parking options that you can ask about when booking.
Another tourist spot that people like to visit is The National Wallace Monument. This tourist attraction is located outside of the city centre on Abbey Craig. With museums inside and great views of the valley from the top. You will need to climb up to the monument and then walk up 246 stairs to reach the top so its something to consider when travelling with groups.
The church of the holy rude is also close by to Stirling castle where Kings and Queens were crowned in Scotland. Aswell as the old town jail where you can learn about the history behind Stirling.

Blair Drummond Safari Park is a great attraction to take your kids too if you're planning to stay for a longer period. You can also visit cambuskenneth abbey if you're looking to explore more religious attractions around Stirling.
