Excellent Edinburgh Vacation Package

By Bob | February 7th, 2007

edinburgh_castle_119.jpgIt won’t come as a surprise to anyone who has had to contend with the crowds during one of the city’s festivals to learn that Edinburgh is the second most visited city in the United Kingdom each year. Only London receives more funny speaking guests from around the world carrying maps like they are lost and snapping pictures left and right each year.

There is a reason why Edinburgh is so popular with tourists: the place rocks. It combines old world charm with modern hipness in a way that few other cities can pull off. The month-long Edinburgh Festival in the summer includes popular events like the Fringe Festival, the International Festival, the Military Tattoo and the International Film Festival. All of these can be a lot of fun as long as you know in advance that you won’t be celebrating them alone. The city gets very, very crowded.

In fact, you might be well advised to check out Edinburgh during a less crowded and less hectic time of year. The Old Town and the castle are a delight to explore and the New Town is ideal for an afternoon stroll.

Edinburgh is well within reach these days and with vacation packages that don’t break the bank you too can be one of the 13 million who pay the city a visit this year.
