World Heritage-listed Edinburgh combines ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere.
Do some cultural sightseeing at Palace of Holyroodhouse and Camera Obscura and World of Illusions. Popular historic sites such as St Giles' Cathedral and Edinburgh Old Town are in your itinerary. And it doesn't end there: take a tour of Royal Yacht Britannia, browse the exhibits of Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, get to know the fascinating history of Royal Mile, and sample the fine beverages at The Scotch Whisky Experience.

To find traveler tips, maps, where to stay, and other tourist information, refer to the Edinburgh trip builder.

If you are flying in from Spain, the closest major airports are Edinburgh Airport and Glasgow International Airport. Expect a daytime high around 22°C in July, and nighttime lows around 11°C.
