The locals pronounce their capital city "edinburah". The lilting Scottish twist on the language we share sounds fun and melodic. But sometimes you have to listen closely to understand it. Our tours around the city reveal an historic locale with amazing archetechure and a strong sense of national pride.

Below is a photo of a post card depicting the Palace of Holyrood House. It was founded in 1128 and is the official residence of Queen Elizabeth when she visits Scotland. It is immense, and no photos are allowed inside. The Queen is expected to spend about 3 weeks here this summer as Scotland celebrates her 90th birthday.
