This is now one of my favorite museums in the world. My tour guide/docent, Jim Paterson, was supremely knowledgeable and interesting. The artifacts and their presentation are beautiful and very moving. The history of the Black Watch is absolutely fascinating and the stories of their spellbinding. The centuries are spellbinding. This museum is a MUST SEE, and I highly recommend you pay the extra money for a guided tour.

This is a very interesting museum with a lot of historical detail provided, interactive displays and fascinating objects to view. It covers two floors with plenty to see. The building is beautiful with period features and lovely grounds. There is an impressive huge metal sculpture outside the entrance and a good shop and restaurant. The staff are helpful.

Enjoyed our visit to the museum. Interesting collection of o hectares including serval VCs. Spread over two floors of the castle. We were there around 90 mins. Also a great Bistro/cafe (we had v gd breakfast) and gift shop. Sobering memorial garden. A 15 mins walk from the city centre or parking on site.

Visited as part of a mother/daughter trip to Perth and initially spotted the signs for this castle/museum from the nearby park, and thought we’d give it a visit to kill some time. As it turns out, we spent the better part of the mid-morning exploring the beautiful museum. There was so much to see! It covered an incredibly broad period of time. We opted out of the guided tour which we regretted in hindsight, but the lovely gentleman who I presume was the tour guide ended up finding us in a few of the rooms and giving us a mini-tour anyways, which was a very welcome surprise. He was so knowledgeable and warm, his story telling was compelling and we were both hooked. I learned more from our interactions than I would have from just reading each plaque and information sign. He is a true credit to the museum. I cannot stress just how much we enjoyed ourselves!

Excellent museum very good information , lots to learn and see. Staff were very helpful and friendly, nice lift to get to the other floors so great access to all areas, shop was good too. Visited the restaurant too and can safely say food was excellent great choice and pleasant staff. Definitely worth a visit

As we often do now, we plumped for a guided tour which allowed us to have breakfast in the cafe. Jim, our guide, was brilliant and incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the Regiment. So much so that we went over the allotted time. The museum is well worth a visit when in Perth. We also had Sunday lunch in the cafe which, sadly, did not live up to expectations.

It was a rainy day and we were looking for somewhere indoors to escape the rain. We were so glad that we chose the Black Watch Museum. Really enjoyable. The museum is well laid out. The history of the Black Watch is fascinating as are the numerous exhibits. As added bonuses the museum has its own car park and an excellent cafe.

Really excellent museum, covering regiment from formation to 2006. Loads of stuff from all eras to look at and read about. Don't miss the VCs on display and the stories behind them - truly awe inspiring. Massive shout out to staff member Jim who gave use loads of extra information, was really friendly and incredibly enthusiastic. He is my new best mate!! Bistro was also wonderful. Very tasty food, at reasonable prices, served by very friendly staff. All in all a great way to spend an afternoon.

Cannot express how wonderful the staff are at the Black Watch Museum. Right from the moment we entered they were helpful and friendly. My Great Great Grandfather fought and died for the Black Watch in WW1 and seeing his name in the memorial room was an emotional moment. The rest of the museum is full of the history of every decade and was informative and a great tribute to all the soldiers. I'd definitely go back.

Sam, the excellent host at the Arisaig Guesthouse recommended the tour.We were not disappointed. We were very fortunate to have volunteer Rosemary as our tour guide. She was a very presentable, elegant and well spoken lady with incredibly knowledge with a wry sense of humour. Although my wife and I are not war museum buffs we thoroughly enjoyed this tour. A fire alarm interrupted Rosemary’s concluding talk but, after a short few minutes standing in the museum yard, the four of us on this tour were quickly rounded up for the summary. I rate this tour a must for visitors to Perth. I would have liked to have taken Rosemary back to Australia but I feel my wife would have had a few words to say about that.
