Athens of the North

World Heritage-listed Edinburgh combines ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere.
You'll explore and learn at Royal Yacht Britannia and National Museum of Scotland. Your cultural itinerary includes sights like Edinburgh Castle and Edinburgh Old Town. The adventure continues: take in the dramatic natural features at Arthur's Seat, engage your brain at Camera Obscura and World of Illusions, steep yourself in history at Real Mary King's Close, and take some stellar pictures from Calton Hill.

Plan my trip to Edinburgh with suggested itineraries provided by Inspirock.

If you are flying in from United States, the closest major airports are Edinburgh Airport, Glasgow International Airport and Glasgow Prestwick Airport. May in Edinburgh sees daily highs of 58°F and lows of 43°F at night. Cap off your sightseeing on the 12th (Sat) early enough to travel back home.
