I highly suggest going to Captain's pub, near the city centre and has live music, going there that night was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life, we went with a big group and felt welcomed, people in Scotland are so nice

Loveee Edinburgh, been twice so far, people are super friendly, everything is reachable by public transport and the entire city is very walkable. There's lots of attractions and sights outside and museums are free !! So you don't need the break the bank at all to have fun and explore.
Posted: May 2, 2025Such a lovely city, the weather was not pleasant tho. It was raining every other day The food were very nice although I mostly just went to Asian restaurants. But the fish and chip at Victoria street was kinda lovely
Posted: April 20, 2025I felt very safe in edinburgh. I stayed at the st. christophers hostel, which has female only dorms. The hostel had a great location right next to the train station. I loved walking around in the old town and visited free museums. You can stay on a budget but it depends on what you want to do. You can reach pretty much everything by foot if you dont mind walking up and down allot;) My highlight was definitely Arthurs seat wich you can climb in about 40 minutes and get really stunning views!

I went as a visiting student to edinburgh. That's why I stayed with a boarding family, that was very nice. Eventhough I was out late, I never felt unsafe, even if I was alone. The public transportation is quite cheap in my opinion and you've got an excellent bus connection all around Edinburgh. Definitely can recommend to go to the Portobello beach and have a look at the museums around there. The castle is also amazing, although quite expensive. I really loved it there!

Edinburgh is well lit and super safe for women walking home alone at night or during the day. There is a large student population who look out for you and even in the darker alleyways, in the centre of the city there is always someone around.

I am a 36 year old Italian lady who lives in Edinburgh. I moved to Scotland to improve my English and live a new experience, and I have been here for 8 years. I love travelling and during my spare time I am always on Google flight to search for my next adventure. I am a friendly person but it's hard for me to get out of my comfort zone, so hopefully this app and you ladies can help me with that.
