Experience all of Edinburgh's attractions with this up-to-date, authoritative guide, packed with Insider Tips. Most holidaymakers want to have fun and feel relaxed from the moment they arrive at their holiday destination - that's what Marco Polo Guides are all about.

Also contains: the Perfect Day, Festivals & Events, Travel Tips, Links, Blogs, Apps & more and a comprehensive index. The Scottish capital has always been vibrant and cosmopolitan without compromising its traditional Scottish heritage of kilts, bagpipes, folk music and whisky. It is divided into two distinct parts, the Old Town and New Town, which are both listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. A practical, pocket-sized guide, MARCO POLO Edinburgh takes you on a journey through time. Take a stroll through this city of international festivals, churches and cemeteries, monuments and museums, creepy stories and strange happenings. The Insider Tips reveal where you can drink beer made of seaweed, where Edinburgh's closest beach resort is situated and why the station clock is always two minutes ahead. The 'Best Of' pages show you things you can find only in Edinburgh, recommend places to go for free, things to do on a rainy day and how best to relax and unwind. Find out What's Hot in Edinburgh - whether art cafes, vintage second-hand shops or places to watch football in 3D. The City Walks chapter leads you through the city's literary past as well as to the oldest pub in Scotland - dating from 1360. Finally, the Dos & Don'ts point out some of the things you need to be aware of and watch out for when visiting the city. MARCO POLO Edinburgh provides comprehensive coverage of the city. To help you find your way around there's a detailed street atlas inside, a useful public transport map in the backcover, plus a handy pull-out map. A must-have for all travellers, including those who haven't bought a travel guide in the past.

Wanderlust Magazine: You've got to applaud Marco Polo's chutzpah to launch 30 new city/island guidebooks into an already pretty crowded market. Aiming to occupy the middle ground between the context-heavy luggage fillers and the context-free thinner volumes, the main USPs of these user-friendly guides are the plentiful 'Insider tips' dotted around each edition, the maps they're packaged with, and the pocket cheering price. Complete with near-magazine style features, they're certainly a less intimidating proposition than some of the big wedges on offer.
