OK tell me the truth... did you ever hear about Stirling or about William Wallace before the "Braveheart" movie??? ...sure. Well, the core history behind Scottish heros is right in this trip!
Come along if you want to experience wearing a chain mail armor, helmet, holding your claymore (Scottish two-handed long sword) and then imagine an (English) enemy soldier standing right in front of you. All this in the Bannockburn Heritage Centre. It is really good fun!

We will be leaving Glasgow [University Main Gates] at 9am and returning at 5pm. The ticket price includes entrance to Bannockburn Heritage Centre and Stirling Castle. Ticket price for the trip is £5 for members, £7 for non-members. The Wallace Monument is an optional visit [as] admission to this attraction costs £6 adults, £4.50 students.
Also, it may be a good idea to bring a lunch or snack along. Food at the sites can be quite expensive.
