Edinburgh is known for historic sites, museums, nature, nightlife, and fun & games. Your plan includes some of its best attractions: explore the historical opulence of Edinburgh Castle, see the interesting displays at Royal Yacht Britannia, contemplate the long history of Palace of Holyroodhouse, and get your game on at Camera Obscura and World of Illusions.

To see photos, reviews, other places to visit, and tourist information, you can read our Edinburgh trip generator.

In August in Edinburgh, expect temperatures between 21°C during the day and 11°C at night. Cap off your sightseeing on the 17th (Thu) early enough to travel back home.
