Introduction
South Queensferry is your jumping-off point for the highlights of Edinburgh, including historic Edinburgh Castle, housing the Scottish crown jewels and the palace that was once home to Mary Queen of Scots. This part of Scotland is known for its rain so be prepared for lush gardens and pretty cobbled walkways that can be slippery when wet. Edinburgh has a great old town with many major historic monuments. This region easily dates back to medieval times.
Port Orientation
The historic port has been restored and modernized with shopping malls and numerous pubs and eateries. Edinburgh is easily accessible via taxi or bus and is only about a ten minute ride or 30 minute walk from where the ship docks.
