How to get here? + Transport Points
There are multiple easy ways to get here as it is one of the main cities of Scotland. Well connected by Road, Air & Rail. ➡️ Take the road by driving in the scenic routes of the UK, either via the East Coast Route passing by towns such as Cambridge, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, etc., or the Lake District Route passing by towns such as Oxford, Peak District, Yorkshire Dales National Park, Windermere, etc. ➡️If Driving is not your game, you can easily take my beloved National Express coaches, they can be quite affordable. ➡️Or take a flight directly to Edinburgh Airport. ➡️And my favorite option- The Railways, multiple lines run to Edinburgh Waverley Train Station. You can easily buy tickets online on the Trainline App. Again a very comfortable and affordable option, sometimes with some stunning coast views of the highlands!
Day 1
Start early, unpack at your stay & then get going to explore this pretty historic city: Day 1 Consists mainly of walking down all the famous streets in the old town side of the city, exploring the little hidden lanes, browsing many shops and eating yum food & tasting some of that gin & whisky, ending it with a bam at a live music venue.
🔶Start with Breakfast at & Then follow the trail of places in the order mentioned below:
Day 2
As you have guessed by now, this city needs you to walk and I am quite the walker too! - Day 2- Transport yourself to this gorgeous little village- Dean's Village (ask somebody about the property prices and be ready to have your jaws dropped) & take a serene walk by the river and find yourself at the Royal Botanical Gardens, & finally walking around the New Town to shop & eat and chill! Makars is a must to eat, their customer service- food quality and quantity is all just so good!!
Day 3
On the last day for our 3-day itinerary, Rise & Shine, have some good old English brekkie and start off the hike to Arthur's Seat (be mindful, if you are a lightweight like me, you might just fly away up there haha), and next be ready for a long walk down to the city of Leith.
