Important Notes for Clients
Train Travel: The train journey to Edinburgh is a highlight; we recommend booking a seat on the right-hand side of the train for the best coastal views when heading north.
Walking: Both cities are best explored on foot. Edinburgh has many steep hills and cobblestone streets; comfortable shoes are a must.
Weather: Layers are essential. Scotland is often cooler and windier than London, regardless of the season.
