About Edinburgh

Home to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the world’s largest arts festival, this Scottish city offers much for many a traveller. Hike up Arthur’s Seat and take in the views of the cityscape, explore the famed Edinburgh Castle at night for a different (spookier) experience, pick up a bespoke kilt, and sample some of the finest whiskies in the world along with the haggis Scotland is well-known for. Take a nature-filled stroll through the Meadows, catch a cool show at the Edinburgh Festival Theatre, immerse yourself in some culture at the Scottish National Galleries, or see big-name musical acts live at Queen’s Hall.
