Things to To

Arthur’s seat is about a 2 hour hike up and down, with fantastic city views. Definitely a great option on a sunny day!

You can walk up to the castle at the top of the Royal Mile and get a decent city view and a peek behind the castle walls. Entrance tickets are on the pricier side, and what you see inside is interesting but not worth the cost for everyone. If you want to wander around something palatial, Holyrood Palace might be a better bet.

Holyrood is where the Queen stays when she visits the city. When she’s not here, you can tour the palace and gardens. It’s a nice alternative to Edinburgh Castle, and sits just below Arthur’s seat.

Grassmarket sits below the castle, and is full of both bars and history. It’s a must visit if you’re spending a day wandering around the city, and is a standard spot on most walking tours.

The best way to see the city is through a walking tour. There are many many tour options online - a quick google will give you a sense of the different options. You can do private tours, free tours (with expectation of a tip for the tour guide), and plenty of themed tours, from the haunted vaults under the city, to all of the spots that influenced JK Rowling while she wrote the Harry Potter books.

The Botanic Gardens are beautiful throughout the year, but especially nice in the summer. The East Gate entrance is less than a five minute walk from the flat and entrance is free (some extra exhibitions and areas may be ticketed). If you’re after a day away from the more touristy parts of the city, I recommend walking through the gardens, exiting on the west side, meandering through Inverleith park (fantastic view of the city from the park when you stand above the pond), and then explore Stockbridge.

Food - Thistle Street

Thistle Street is nestled into New Town, a few streets up from the main Prince’s Street. You’ll find a cluster of great restaurants here, well located between the hustle and bustle of the more touristy Rose Street, and the local vibes of Stockbridge.
