Edinburgh is more than just a city. It’s a living museum, which helps to make it one of the most popular places to visit in Scotland. First up on your itinerary should be Edinburgh Castle with its sweeping panoramic views and long and fascinating history. Did you know the castle houses Scotland’s crown jewels and the famous Stone of Destiny?

You can then see what’s known as the Royal Mile, passing historic sites, charming shops, and inviting pubs along the way. And trust us, the pubs are inviting. If you time it right, you could also visit the famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival when the streets come alive with eclectic and entertaining acts. Just make sure you book your hotel well ahead.
