Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland since the 15th Century, stands on seven hills creating a dramatic skyline. The Edinburgh Open Top Tour is a great way to see the most exciting attractions in the capital.
Compare Edinburgh's Old Town, where families lived in cramped conditions and rubbish was thrown out of the windows, to the elegant Georgian New Town with its three main streets and a square at either end. Hear about the hangings that took place in the Grassmarket as you marvel at the impenetrable Castle Rock above you and hear about the attempts to capture Edinburgh Castle. See the Royal Mile which joins Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Holyrood House.
The tours have a running commentary in nine languages and a Hop on Hop off facility. Tours run every 15-30 minutes.

Famous for heather-covered highlands, peaceful lochs inhabited by green things named "Nessie," bagpipe competitions, and men in skirts, Scotland appeals to those looking for a little something off the beaten path. So check your bagpipe at the door and scope out all the other monster instruments rockers around the world have used throughout the ages to enchant their fans…(*perhaps surprisingly, kilts only seem to do the trick in Scotland). Once you've feasted your eyes on our entire fabulous collection of memorabilia, be sure to feast properly on our varied menu items served in monstrous portions. Moor is more at the Hard Rock Edinburgh!
