 Edinburgh's skyline

Things to see and do 

You are spoiled for choice with the numerous sights around thisPiper breathtaking city. The soaring buildings in the medieval old town and the grace of the new town are  outstanding. As you tour around the city there are spectacular sights at every turn. What other city boasts three fantastic platforms from which you can take in exhilarating views of the municipality. The hike up Arthur's Seat has an immense payoff with a spectacular view. Carlton Hill is recommended for watching fireworks against the skyline, and, of course, the castle at the epicentre of the city gives you a fantastic panoramic view. 

The spirit of the city is second to none. The pubs and bars are open late. The City's art culture nurtures new talent as well as hosts the biggest names in music, comedy, television, and countless other art forms.

Start with a City tour which can be taken on the open topped buses. Click on logos.
