Touring Edinburgh & Scotland

Whilst not enhancing your cultural standing, Edinburgh is a superb city with many spectacular visitor attractions, including this, Ghost Hunting and one on the world’s greatest golf courses. The people are also very welcoming and it is famous for one of the world’s greatest Hogmany parties.

Scotland itself is a beautiful country, take a trip to the stunning Scottish Highlands, Harry Potter was filmed up here!, also Scotlands biggest city Glasgow is only 45 minutes away!.
