About Edinburgh


Thinking about a break to Edinburgh? Scotland’s capital has a bit of everything: history, shops, and plenty to see without having to rush about. 

The Old Town is full of character, with cobbled streets, hidden closes and buildings that go back centuries. Just a short walk away, the New Town feels more open, with wide streets and Georgian squares that are easy to get around. 

The Royal Mile runs right through the centre, linking Edinburgh Castle at the top to Holyroodhouse at the bottom. Princes Street is great for a stroll too, with gardens below and the castle sitting up above.  

Once you arrive in Edinburgh, everything is planned to make it easy for you. We work with great hotels that are comfortable and well placed, allowing you to rest and make the most out of your time away. We also include your evening meal and breakfast in the morning, so you don’t have to worry about arranging a table for dinner taken care of. 

With some trips including excursions, you can also see a little more of the surrounding area if you like – or simply enjoy free time in the city. It’s all at a pace that suits you.
