【 Edinburgh Castle 】*Optional Excursion —The spiritual pillar of Scotland, and the premier tourist destination in Scotland. Formerly the residence of the Kings and Queens of Scotland, and one of the summer residences of the Queen of England, it stands atop a 135-meter-high jagged granite hill formed by an extinct volcano. Its strategic location, with one sloping side and three cliffs, makes it a natural fortress, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The Royal Mile —the central thoroughfare of Edinburgh's Old Town—stretches approximately one mile from Edinburgh Castle to Holyrood Palace, its winding laneways forming the backbone of the Old Town. Encompassing numerous attractions, restaurants, bars, shops, and hostels, it's the perfect starting point for exploring Edinburgh's history.

The glass cases are filled with elephant plush toys of various materials and styles, the chairs are elephant-shaped, there are elephant stickers on the glass, and even the coffee cups are printed with elephants.

Princes Street — Edinburgh's most bustling commercial street, parallel to the Royal Mile. The New Town and Old Town stand on opposite sides, like a battleground between the classical and the modern. To the south lies a lush green expanse, and at its eastern end is Princes Street Gardens. The New Town lies to the north, and the Old Town to the south. A long, narrow hill forms a natural barrier between the two. Princes Street is often described as "the most scenic street in the world."
Calton Hill — Located in the eastern part of Edinburgh's New Town, it is the highest point and most scenic area in Edinburgh.

In particular, the college's long corridors and library are considered to bear similarities to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from the Harry Potter series.
The Halfpenny Bridge is a historic bridge spanning the River Liffey in Dublin. It gets its name from the fact that people used to pay a halfpenny to cross the bridge.

- The free airport pick-up service is a group-based service. There may be other customers on the vehicle. The driver is only responsible for the pick-up service between the airport and the hotel and cannot answer questions related to other group tours.
Itinerary
- Please arrive at the designated departure point at least 30 minutes in advance, and close the vehicle doors 15 minutes before departure. All tours will depart on time. If a tourist does not arrive on time, the tour will be treated as a "NO SHOW," and no rescheduling or refund will be offered.
- In the event of major local events, attraction closures, or other force majeure events that cause changes to the itinerary or prevent entry to attractions, adjustments may be made or attractions may be changed to exterior views only. The final arrangements on the day shall prevail.
- The tour itinerary for the day will be determined by the driver/guide.
- If you purchase a hotel room before the tour, we will send you the hotel address before departure. The hotel is conveniently located from the airport terminal: you can choose to take the airport bus or a taxi to the hotel, which takes about 20-30 minutes.
Kind tips:
1. Check-in time for the first day is usually after 3:00 PM. If you arrive at the hotel before 3:00 PM, the hotel may allow you to store your luggage and use facilities such as the hotel lobby and restaurant. Check-in to your room is usually after 3:00 PM.
2. Regarding the single room supplement for the first and last two nights: If one person registers, a single room supplement of £160 is required for the first and last two nights by default; if three people register, the first and last two nights will be in a family room by default. If this is not agreed upon, a single room supplement of £160 will be required at the time of registration. One standard room and one single room can be arranged.
3. Please be aware of your safety and keep your personal belongings safe.
4. Our tour guide will pick you up directly from the lobby of your hotel the following morning to begin the tour (we will send you the specific time along with the tour guide's information the day before departure, please check your messages). Please plan your breakfast and check out in advance to avoid affecting the itinerary.
