Quaint streets meet traditional restaurants in this culture-filled city! You’ll want to taste all the haggis, Cullen skink, and fresh lobster that you can. Visit castles of old such as Edinburgh Castle, and religious history awaits at St. Giles’ Cathedral! Scale Arthur’s Seat to capture incredible photos of the city below. Try some whiskey at a nearby tavern or pub - you’ll find many! You’re never far from energetic bagpipe players and folk music. Soak in all the food, music, and architecture of Edinburgh!
