Edinburgh: The Practical City Guide
£8.99
Skip to product information
See the best of Edinburgh – without the sold-out castle, the festival price shock or the wasted afternoons.
Most of what goes wrong on an Edinburgh trip is predictable: arriving at the castle without a ticket, booking August by accident, driving into the Low Emission Zone, climbing Arthur's Seat in the wrong shoes, or never leaving the Royal Mile. This practical guide shows you how to avoid all of it.
Inside you'll find:
• Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile and St Giles' Cathedral, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Arthur's Seat, the National Museum of Scotland and Calton Hill – with how long to allow, the best time to go, how tickets work and what to watch out for
• The airport tram and Airlink, Waverley station, buses, contactless fare caps, the Low Emission Zone and the new visitor levy
• The Fringe, the Tattoo, Edinburgh's Christmas and Hogmanay – and how to plan around them
• Which area to stay in, from the Old Town to Stockbridge and Leith
• 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-day itineraries
• Day trips to the Forth Bridges, Stirling, Linlithgow, Rosslyn Chapel, North Berwick and Glasgow
• Scottish food, pubs and whisky, family and accessibility advice, and a quick-reference checklist
Clear, honest and to the point – ideal for a first visit or a city break.
Book 6 in the Traveller's Essentials series.
