48 Hours In EDINBURGH | UNILAD Adventure

[@knicol46]

To get around the city I would recommend the Lothian bus dayticket £4 (Jan 2019). Consider a trip to Forth Bridges at South Queensferry (number 63 bus from Gyle), then maybe Cramond Island (41), Roslin Chapel (15, 37, 140) or even a trip along the coast to Seton Sands (26). You can use on Edinburgh Trams (ticket not valid on/off airport stop). Dayticket valid from 6am - midnight. Use early for best value. Enjoy your trip!

Lived in the Borders region of Scotland for 2 years... very close to Edinburgh

[@graylingboy]

It's not a canal that runs through Dean Village but the Water of Leith. A river with a great mill history.... The Cafe Royal is a gem :-)

[@lyssamalloy5162]

Im flying there soon stay in Edinburgh for 5days to visit my late husband's family in Falkirk then London.. Scots are very kind and warm people .. i miss Scotland so much

[@Scottwasnthere]

clearly a sponsored video. Arthur seat is a volcano not just a towering rock face & its the water of leith flows through dean village. never seen a canal boat casually sail over waterfalls....

I would like to visit Edinburgh Castle because I can see the walls that used to protect people, as well as see the royal apartments. I would like to visit Arthurs Seat because from there you can see bewitching views and a beautiful sunset. After that I would visit Holy Cow to eat delicious food.

[@laurakennedy6982]

Thank you so much for including a vegan restaurant!! I'm vegan and am traveling to Edinburgh next month! I'm glad to have the recommendation!

[@edinburghcitymom6020]

Hendersons salad bar in city centre and Dishoom always good. There is. new website veganedinburgh.com might be helpful.

[@rosemuse4303]

Check out The Witchery for somewhere fancy to eat/stay. If you’ve got kids or want something fun try Camera Obscura. For amazing fresh mussels/ seafood try mussels inn - but make sure you book ahead, the locals fill it up pretty quick. If you’re a Harry Potter fan try Diagon House on bank street and The Elephant house cafe where JK wrote the books ( really touristy but still cool). If you like hipster cafes try Lovecrumbs and for a good pub try the halfway house which is hidden down an alleyway on Bank street which is pretty small but serves amazing Cullen Skink! Then try out the Ensign Ewart pub for great live music 🥰

[@shelleyphilcox4743]

If you like treasure trove shops, go to Aquarius on Bread and Spittal Street. Cheap food go to Wings, special dinner or lunch, Rhubarb at Prestonfields or The Dome on Grorge Street, history trip Castle or the Real Mary Kings Close and St Giles Cathedral, nice lunch or posh afternoon tea, the Collonades at the Signet Rooms (this is the very best afternoon tea you will ever have in your life...its really special). Music and drinks, the Ghillie Dhu at Rutland Place at the end of Princes Street/Shandwick Place, or cocktails at Tigerlily on George Street.

[@aidenbuho]

why is noone talking about the royal botanic garden?

Arthur's seat is not on the edge of the city, it's basically right in the middle with the whole of Edinburgh surrounding it

well..its the edge of the "touristy" parts .lol

[@Groindz]

@@studmalexy I agree to an extent, but the video didn't explain it in that way at all

[@nutyyyy]

It was the edge or even outside in the 1700s which is basically the only part of the city most tourists think of

[@Groindz]

@@nutyyyy I dont dispute that. They make it sound as though it's the official edge and anything past Arthur's seat isn't Edinburgh

I loved walking on Arthur seat we went there in October 2018 there was a lot of snow back then. Dean village was like walking through a Harry Potter set no wonder where jk Rowling got her inspiration from. Sorry if my English is bad, Greetings from sweden

[@carronalee]

The Dean Village neighbourhood does not have a canal running through it! It’s an ancient river called ‘The Water of Leith’. Big difference! Also, Arthur’s Seat is an extinct volcano and it’s not ‘at the edge of the city’. It’s a few hundred metres from the very centre of Edinburgh.

[@SeanSaez]

I would highly recommend Craigmillar Castle an old castle where Mary Queen of Scots once lived you may recognise as its one of the filming locations for a number of scenes in Outlander & The Outlaw King. The National Museum of Scotland It's a great experience and it's free. (Although its nice to leave a small donation while leaving) As for bars and Clubs I would recommend The Banshee Labyrinth (Niddry Street) (one of the most haunted pubs in Edinburgh, it has it's own Cinema, a pool table room, 3 different bars? a small concert room for bands or karaoke nights. Stramash (Cowgate) a newer music venue rebuld as an old church that was rebuilt within the last 10 years after a large fire but it still has a very rustic and historical feeling. Its got a great mix of music from Blues, Folk, Rock and country with a theatre style stage and an upstairs balcony. Whistle Binkies ( South Bridge) if you want a more alternative small rock venue. The Stand Comedy Club is brilliant for a night of laughter, fun and a few drinks. You can discover a new up and coming talent or you could be suprised with a famous comedian trying out new material before going on their next big tour. Get their early as it's a small venue and seats go fast.

[@528stevieethereal8]

Or even into actual Craigmillar or cross the road to niddrie.you'dve enjoyed that

[@ayeshakhondoker6621]

Sean Saez any entry fee to visit the castle? How much is it ?

No sign of the magnificent New Town. Oh sorry......I’m forgetting the video is aimed at people who prefer to trampoline with a pint of lager in their hand.

I realise that showing restaurants and other business that support the video, but the balance here is off-putting. Too much eats and not enough visual treats of the city. I know the place very well - I head there tomorrow - and there are many great locations within walking distance of the Royal Mile that never /seldom get featured...like the Georgian architecture of the New Town, the Stockbridge Colonies, the residential areas on the south side. A good job done on your clip, and learning about places to eat is good. But it's all about balance. Cheers.
