9 days in Edinburgh Itinerary

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

Step out of Edinburgh with an excursion to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow--about 1h 10 min away. There's lots more to do: explore the historical opulence of Edinburgh Castle, don't miss a visit to The Real Mary King's Close, take a stroll through Edinburgh Old Town, and take some stellar pictures from Calton Hill.

If you are flying in from Argentina, the closest major airports are Edinburgh Airport, Glasgow International Airport and Glasgow Prestwick Airport. In October, plan for daily highs up to 15°C, and evening lows to 7°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 18th (Wed) early enough to travel back home.
