Its hard to overstate just how scenically beautiful Edinburgh is. Its a city built in and between great hills and dormant volcanos, and just walking around is fascinating, with all the roads and buildings crossing at different levels

Edinburgh has single-handedly had the biggest emotional impact on me of any city I’ve ever been to. I seriously think it is the most beautiful place on Earth. I had no expectations going in to my first trip and it blew me away, and I’m excited to get the opportunity to go back later this year!

The quality of this video and editing is stunning. Thank you for your work.

Love how you went over foods, prices, money. Thank you.

Best quick travel guide on YT, got everything you need including price comparison on common food/drink.

I've been lucky enough to travel a lot when I was in college, and just before the pandemic, then travel more than ever (July 2022-July 2023, marks the first time in my life I've completed a round trip flight every month, and travelled internationally every fiscal quarter), and being in an expensive city now (Boston) has made me acutely aware of 3 things.
1. Attache guides are pretty accurate even throughout time, occasionally there are some things that are time limited, but there usually an easy way to update the references that were time relevant
2. Everything is simpler and easier now that apple pay is widely used, from Boston to DC, to London, Vienna, Nairobi and damn near everywhere in between, I haven't had to use an atm since 2019, and use cash maybe once or twice a year, usually only on "free" walking tours.
3. Don't let the "expensive city" label determine if it'll actually be expensive to you. As mentioned, I live in Boston, While NYC, LA, and Miami may be the US cities that are known to be expensive, Boston is near as makes no difference NYC type pricing, but without most of the NYC benefits, so when I went to London (when the pound was worth about 1.10 USD) I saved so much money it was ridiculous.

These vids make me want to travel. I rarely leave my town of birth. If i do, it has historically been only a feeting visit to Glasgow or Edinburgh, for a gig, then back home.

Have been watching your videos for a while, and love them! This one is fortuitous — I’m moving to Edinburgh from NZ in a few weeks’ time. Thanks, as always, for the insight ☺️

So many birds! My fav one is on the Telephone cabin watching you to drop some food.

I was blown away by this city the first time I visited.

Lived in Edinburgh for a year in 2014-2015 and this place will always be a home for me. Such a special place!

[akiwiincanada]

Edinburgh has been on my hit list forever, thanks for making this and reminding me!

If you ask people about cities you'll usually get divided opinions, but I have never heard anyone say they didn't love Edinburgh.

High quality, informative travel vlog/documentary .. I literally approve!! Love this channel❤

Absolutely delightful video. With my best friend in London, I find myself there most often when visiting the UK - probably 6-7 times in the last decade +. In April 2022, I finally changed that by doing a quick 4 day side trip to Edinburgh and loved it. So this video brought back fond recent memories - thank you. If you go back soon, try Cafe St. Honoré. I enjoy their not fussy French inspired food using amazing Scottish products (and the chef-owner, Neil Forbes, seems a good guy). Agree completely with the train approach. Traveled the Caledonian Sleeper from Euston on the way up (which was one of those bucket list train trips I had been wanting to do, and glad I did), and the LNER Azuma direct service to Kings Cross on the return - which was also an absolutely lovely journey. Oh, Alex, I get the whole bagpipe thing - my Scots-Irish ancestors have been in America since the 1700s, but as soon as the pipes begin to play my eyes start “watering.”

Followed your channel for a longtime now and I was super excited to see you visit my country 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I’m so glad you got to enjoy Edinburgh - looks like you got lucky with the weather too 😂 haste ye back!

[Knowingspy]

I'm so happy you visited my city! Hopefully you managed to avoid the recent heavy rain (could apply most times of the year haha). You're always welcomed back!

[Kwippy]

I love the bagpipes and I cry when I hear a haggis.

The fudge you're describing sounds a lot like the "Sucre à la crème" here in Quebec!

Another bloody brilliant production 👍🏻🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I visited Edinburgh back in May and seeing your video really made me miss this wonderful city! The fact that I know all the spots where you stood and shot your videos from made me so happy to say that I was there too. Scotland is truly its own beauty in somewhat magical way in my opinion. I will be coming back next year!
