World Heritage-listed Edinburgh combines ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere.
Get out of town with these interesting Edinburgh side-trips: Rosslyn Chapel (in Roslin), Falkirk (The Kelpies & The Kelpies & The Helix) and National Wallace Monument (in Stirling). The adventure continues: step into the grandiose world of Holyrood Park, explore the world behind art at Scottish National Portrait Gallery, gain some tasty knowledge on a distillery tour, and pause for some photo ops at Scott Monument.
