Creator's Key Takeaways

We have been here quite a few times. We have gone and done the whole Edinburgh Castle, Royal Mile thing before.

I've just tried this. It is delightfully mild. Um the sweetness of the rudabagga really helps out.

They were from the Netherlands, which is obviously the Dutch teners. Beautiful choice of songs, really amazing harmony. It was just a really great show.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take the X99 bus from the port for convenient and affordable transport to Edinburgh.
βœ“Visit McGonogal's Gin and Whisky for a fun pub experience with good food and drinks.
βœ“Explore Victoria Street and Greyfriars for Harry Potter-themed sights.
