6 days in Edinburgh Itinerary

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

National Museum of Scotland and Edinburgh Castle are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Step out of the city life by going to Arthur's Seat and Bruntsfield Links Short Hole Golf Course. There's still lots to do: examine the collection at Royal Yacht Britannia, explore the historical opulence of Palace of Holyroodhouse, contemplate the long history of The Real Mary King's Close, and take a stroll through Edinburgh Old Town.
