Edinburgh

Description:

Edinburgh - the capital of Scotland - is one of Europe’s most beautiful medieval cities.  With charming cobblestone streets, elegant Georgian town homes, and breathtaking vistas from a number of vantage points, the city really does offer something for everybody.  You can find winding lanes filled with boutique shops and pubs, or take advantage of the easy access to the outdoors and go exploring in the Scottish countryside. The first stop on your list should be the Old Town, which is considered Edinburgh’s medieval heart along the Royal Mile. The Royal Mile runs from the Castle to Holyrood Palace and contains the city’s most famous sites. Also, don’t forget that Edinburgh is the City of Festivals so there’s never a dull moment, even here in this small city.  Come visit "Auld Reekie" and experience Scottish hospitality at its best.
