What travelers think of this experience
What you’ll do
Oh, bonny Scotland. You’ll spend a day in Edinburgh with one of our friendly Edinburgh hosts, seeing what there is to see, eating what there is to eat, and just having a top time in general.
Edinburgh is a city of many delights - with poetry-inscribed pavements and zealous, story-telling bartenders in each pub - it really is a feeling rather than a mere place.
It is this, that your host will try to share with you. Of course, you might want to check out some of the main sites like the Edinburgh Castle, Royal Mile, Scott Monument, or Holyrood Park before taking a turn off the beaten path and allowing your host to share some of the less-touristy spots with you.
Take in the view from Calton Hill and see how seamlessly Edinburgh blends in with its green surrounds; settling comfortably atop the crags as it’s done for centuries.
Perhaps you’d like to discover Old Town together or sample some Scottish snacks at the Edinburgh Food Market.
We’re talking fresh produce, famous beers, and (if you’re brave), some haggis. Enjoy making this historic city your own, with bonny memories and plenty of scotch, ye ken?
