What a fantastic and fun-filled day we had at Edinburgh Zoo! 🦁🐯🦒🐧 From the moment we arrived, there was so much to see and explore. We enjoyed walking around the zoo, discovering different animals from all around the world, and watching them in their habitats. It was wonderful to see the animals up close and learn more about them, their behaviours, and how they are cared for. Some of the animals were especially entertaining and definitely gave us plenty of laughs! 🐒😂 The beautiful surroundings, exciting exhibits, and lovely atmosphere made the whole day even more enjoyable. We spent the day making memories, taking lots of photos, enjoying some delicious treats, and simply having a great time together. There were plenty of happy moments, laughter, and unforgettable experiences along the way. 📸❤️ A visit to Edinburgh Zoo is definitely a great way to spend the day, and we are so glad we had the opportunity to enjoy it. It was a day full of fun, adventure, learning, and wonderful memories that we will treasure for a long time. 🐾✨ Thank you, Edinburgh Zoo, for such a brilliant day! We can’t wait for our next adventure! 🦓🦘🐘🌿

The Scoth Whisky Experience was our first stop of the day and it was incredible! The tour was fun and informative, our guide Victoria was a delight, and the final stop (not gonna spoil it in a review) was a CAN NOT MISS! 100% recommend! I will say the meeting location listed in the app was incorrect and you meet inside the building not out front. The Edinburgh Dungeon was a wild time! I went to this attraction 20 years ago and it has completely changed from what it was back in the day and because I didn't look into it and expected it to just be the same two decades later, I inadvertently took my best friend to a scare experience (and she is not a fan of scare experiences) but thankfully she did enjoy herself (which is why I am able to write this today!) And I had a blast! The scare actors were incredibly talented and the scares were absolutely earned! And we both appreciated that there was no touching. That's always a point of contention here in the states with grabbing. 100% worth doing if you like history and scares!

I loved this .. the highlight of my trip to Edinburgh. The staff were amazing and played their characters superbly. Informative, interactive and lots of fun. I giggled from start to finish. I went with my very introverted daughter, who usually wouldnt entertain that sort of thing, but she played along and enjoyed the experience too.

Amazing experience!! Absolutely loved every second of day out. From finally being able to see koala bears in person (my all time favourite animal) to seeing atty the baby sloth, this was hands down the best day ever. I spent 4 hours here and even then I felt I could have spent so much more time
