The "shoes Notice" is very important, you need a good and water proof shoes, actually the shoes were my only problem in Edinburgh, the main problem was walking uphil and downhill
"Colinton Dell" Is the most beautiful part of Edinburgh to visit, Which seldom makes it on the tourist route
It's a bit out of the way & best way to get there is by the canal at Fountain Bridge
I'll check it out during my next visit. Thanks!
Don’t miss Portobello beach as a place to visit! People never think that would be in a City.
Thanks for the tip! Looking forward to checking it out during my next visit :)
And the Shore down in Leith. With the tram it is now easier than than ever for visitors to find their way there.
@@MrCherryJuiceOr just head towards the stale smell of pish 😂
Hey I’m just wondering if the city safe?and how is the locals treatment with the foreigners?and is it safe for women? I’m going out of my city for the first time without my family so I’m just trying to not choose the wrong place 😢
@@shaaa6434 As a former resident and someone who visits annually (my daughter lives there) I can confirm that Edinburgh is safe, welcomes foreigners (there are many living there and/or attending university) and it is fine for women. If your accommodation is away from the city centre there are buses and a tram line. It is a very walkable city, so you might want to consider staying close to the city centre. If you are considering a place to stay, check it out using Google Maps and Google Street View. The latter in particular will let you see the building and the area. And you can move through the streets to get an idea of the setting and what you would be walking through.
Overall, once away from the Old Town and the shopping area in the New Town the city, aside from the main streets is surprisingly quiet.
Very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome :)
Scotland is a very beautiful magical marvellous country.
Couldn't agree more :)
Please chase humza yousaf immediately 🙏
I’ve just firmed uni of Edinburgh and when we visited we went to Mary kings close it was so good kind of like the London dungeons!
As an Edinburgh-based, but globally mobile (business and pleasure) person, this channel is right in my wheelhouse. Subscribed - and I hope to work through most of your videos in due course.
One of the few channels to also highlight how under-appreciated the Water of Leith is. Although I would add that while most of the walk is quite wonderful in its own right, it also allows for several pit stops into the less touristy but pleasant parts of the city that also have quite good bars, cafes, and minor (but not swamped) attractions. I’ve actually noticed in recent years and months more visitors - particularly Americans - venturing into the increasingly trendy parts of Leith itself.
Welcome to the channel! Really appreciate the support and you taking the time to share your perspective. Cheers
another banging video! great
Glad you enjoyed!
Awesome video! Also, I suggest getting a railcard from TrainPal for extra savings!
If you want more of a challenge and also have bus links from the city center to the Pentland Hills for a nice little hike just on tbe outskirts of the citys southside.
Bus only takes less than 30 min.
Thanks! I'll check this out during my next visit :)

Sure, take train that is 4 times as much as a flight, no thanks. But that's all the trains in the UK - swiss prices, average experience. But good vid, thanks for the tips. Edinburgh is a beautiful city and I'm happy I visited.
Thanks for watching :)

7 at least, 8 on a good day 🫡
Which area did you specifically stay in?
I was over near Comely Bank
Royale Mile???
What about it haha?
Nope. Not going to a graveyard. Too many energies coming to get me 😂
But it's soooooo beautiful
Don't listen to him. Get a flight. 10x cheaper and 7x faster
Definitely an option but I'd still prefer the train. Might end up being cheaper for travelers with lots of bags or traveling as a family. Most of those cheap flights on low cost carriers charge an arm and a leg for bags. Train also cuts out the time commuting to and from the airport, checking bags, security, etc. But you're right -- a flight might be the better option for some folks
No. The correct pronunciation is Edin-Bo-Row.
I say we put it to a vote. Locals - please respond haha
@@camdendavid Your way, not his. Edinburgh native here.
Edinburgh native also, its "Edin-bruh"
@@camdendavid Edinburra to me and 95% of the folks who live there, my sister who is 82 still calls it that way the same as i have said.
@@heartsineurope NO IT ISN'T. EDIN-BUH-RUH. Not Edin-Bruh.
