Board your motorcoach and take a scenic drive to Edinburgh's city center. Scotland's capital delights all who visit and this UNESCO World Heritage Site is steeped in history and culture. Disembark at a central point for shopping and sightseeing and spend the day (approximately six hours) seeing all of the city's key points of interest. Enjoy lunch on your own in one of the many wonderful restaurants and cafes. A city map will be provided for your convenience.

For those interested in shopping, the finest stores are located around Princes Street or along the Royal Mile. There's something for everyone and the variety ranges from funky clothing and souvenirs to traditional wares, elegant fashions and excellent cashmere.

When it is time to refresh, the abundance food and beverage choices are sure to please every palate. Head over to George Street if you are seeking a stylish bistro or if you prefer a true pub atmosphere, Old Town has a variety of them, each with their own story to tell.

History buffs will enjoy a stroll down Royal Mile flanked with historical monuments and landmarks. Edinburgh Castle, home to the Crown Jewels looms over the city at one end and famed Holyrood Palace, the Royal Family's home while in Scotland, stands proudly at the other. Both offer tours of the inside rooms and grounds.

No matter what your interest, Edinburgh is a delightful and easy city to explore on your own. Just make sure to exchange your currency onboard the ship or at a currency exchange as British Pounds are required for entrance fees to popular attractions.
