5 days in Edinburgh Itinerary

World Heritage-listed Edinburgh combines ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere.

For shopping fun, head to The Glasgow School of Art or House for an Art Lover. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at R Carter & Sons and Direct Pets. Venture out of the city with trips to Bamburgh (St Aiden Beach & Bamburgh Castle). There's lots more to do: take a stroll through Edinburgh Old Town, view the masterpieces at Urbane Art Gallery, see the interesting displays at Royal Yacht Britannia, and step into the grandiose world of Edinburgh Castle.
