A fun, in-depth guide full of tips and information, this title points out where to find the best deals on airfare, provides information on what kind of festivals or celebrations occur at different times of the year and suggests four separate detailed itineraries for travellers who have one week, travellers who have two weeks, travellers with kids and travellers who want to concentrate on outdoor activities. Descriptions of the larger cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh include recommendations of the best city tours, the best places to shop for quintessential Scottish goods like wool sweaters and kilts, and the best watering holes for great music, pints and pub grub. The guide also provides information on the highlights of the countryside: working Scotch distilleries, ancient history-filled castles, the best golf courses and the lovely glens and lakes. Places to stay, for every taste and budget, are also covered, from a luxurious 15th-century estate to an inexpensive guesthouse that serves delicious three-course dinners and fresh jam and bread for breakfast.
