Welcome to Edinburgh…

the city of cult and kilt!

Edinburgh is not only the capital of Scotland, but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site – with 75% of its buildings listed! The city is vibrant, colorful, and cosmopolitan, offering a wide range of highlights all within walking distance. There’s plenty to discover – from deep-fried chocolate bars to caber tossing in kilts at the annual Highland Games. And despite all the culture and excitement, Edinburgh holds a green secret: it’s the greenest city in the UK, with more trees per resident than any other city.

4 good reasons to choose Edinburgh for your next incentive

01

Scottish culture

Scotland’s rich heritage comes to life in Edinburgh – from the haunting sounds of the bagpipes to the proud tradition of Highland Games. Discover centuries-old castles, tartan patterns, storytelling, and a deep-rooted sense of national identity.

03

Nature in the heart of the city

Just a short walk from the city center lies Arthur’s Seat – an extinct volcano offering breathtaking views over the entire city, the sea, and even the distant Highlands. Also worth a visit is Holyrood Park, a vast natural oasis right in the heart of Edinburgh.

02

Legends of the Highlands and Beyond

Scotland’s national animal is the unicorn. With all the myths and legends surrounding this country, that hardly comes as a surprise! And it’s just as fitting that many scenes from Harry Potter were not only filmed here – parts of the story were actually written in Edinburgh, too.
