Drive a Hire Car in Edinburgh

A great way to become familiar with the Edinburgh is by visiting the Royal Mile, one of the most popular attractions in the city. Located in the centre of the city, the Royal Mile dates back to the 16th century and is home to many well preserved historical buildings. Be sure to check out the Palace of Holyroodhouse, at one end of the Mile, which is the Queen’s official residence in Scotland, and at the other end follow the mile to the opposite end where you can visit Edinburgh Castle. Just near the castle you can also visit the Edinburgh Camera Obscura, a historical attraction with optical illusions and a tower with 360 degree view of the area.

For a spectacular scenic drive, jump in your rental car and follow the rugged coastline of the North Sea, which separates the UK and Scandinavia. Small towns and fishing villages line the coast, providing great sights as you drive along and perfect places to stop off. Another great daytrip is a visit to Glasgow in the west. Jump in your rental car and follow the roads across the famous Scottish green hills, the perfect setting for a relaxing country drive.
