Visit Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle dominates the city skyline. It's one of the oldest fortified places in Europe and has seen its fair share of bloody battles throughout history. Follow in the footsteps of royals in the Great Hall where grand banquets took place, peek inside cells where prisoners of war were detained, and watch a live reenactment to see Mary, Queen of Scots and other historical figures in action.
Climb Arthur’s Seat
Surrounded by the rolling hills of Queens Park and Holyrood Palace, this extinct volcanic peak offers some of the best views of the city. It's a decent walk to the top, but your efforts will be rewarded with incredible 360 vistas that sweep across Edinburgh and beyond. Don't forget your camera!
Explore the Royal Mile
The Royal Mile is the beating heart of Edinburgh's Old Town. Explore its ancient cobbled laneways and uncover the city's stories at the impressive St Giles’ Cathedral, Parliament Square and Castle Esplanade. Or pop into one of the many pubs to enjoy toe-tapping Scottish music over a whisky or two.
Marvel at Holyrood Palace
Holyrood is the royal family's official Scottish residence. It boasts over 280 rooms — including the Great Gallery, Royal Dining Room, Throne Room and State Apartments — and spectacular gardens. Marvel at the palace's intricate design, discover ancient relics or visit the former chambers of its most iconic residents, including Bonnie Prince Charlie and 16th-century monarch, Mary Queen of Scots.
Explore Dean Village
With cobblestone roads, colourful cottages and the rippling Water of Leith flowing through its centre, Dean Village is as quaint as Scottish villages get. The settlement was built in the 1880s as a mill town, and you’ll find remnants of its history scattered around. Walking along the river, you'd never guess it was just a stone's throw from the city!
Enjoy the Scotch Whisky Experience
Take your tastebuds on an adventure through the fascinating world of Scotland's national drink: whisky. Learn about the main whisky regions and flavours, walk into a huge vault loaded with more bottles than you could ever imagine, and visit the blending room to discover how the spirit is made.
