FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF EDINBURGH 🏴(Edinburgh, Scotland)
In this video we head North in the UK & travel to Edinburgh Scotland for the first time! Watch as we hike to the top of Arthur's Seat & Salisbury Crags, try Haggis for the first time while we wander Edinburgh's Royal Mile and Old Town. We also check out the charming neighbourhoods of Stockbridge and Dean Village, visit the Royal Botanic Gardens, Look at art in the National Museum of Scotland, Try Tattie Scones, walk up to Calton Hill & end our trip with a bang with the One O'Clock Gun at Edinburgh Castle!

Thanks for watching guys! This is the last video of our UK series! What was your favourite video from the series? See you next week in Istanbul, Turkey!!
I just came here to hear how you pronounced both Edinburgh and Scotland and left feeling very impressed with the rest of the video!

Thank you! Edinburgh is a beautiful city and we can’t wait to come back and explore more of Scotland some day! 🏴
@ 3.40 in your video you show a view of Arthur seat, hidden in the grass about 20ft infront of you, there is a rock with some old carving on it. When you stand infront of the rock, or a few feet either side, and shout you get the most amazing echo. Not sure what the carvings once said, but it's a cool thing to show visitors. Enjoyed your V-log, and always appreciate when Americans take the time to learn how to pronounce the name of my city, you'd be surprised how many don't. The "highlands" are the Pentlands, due south of Edinburgh, they continue south and turn into the southern uplands.

Wow I wish we knew that when we were there!! Thanks for sharing that information 🙂. Not sure it makes a difference but I’m actually Canadian and maybe because of Lauren I could pronounce the city name properly, but it doesn’t seem like a challenging name to pronounce so not sure why so many people mess it up 😅😂
Glad you enjoyed some nice weather . You saw a lot . Plenty more to discover next time .

Tourist coming to Scotland seem to gravitate towards Edinburgh, Glasgow, the highlands, and isle of Skye. There are hidden gems such as the Scottish borders. The Ayrshire coast. Isle of Arran, Dumfries and Galloway. Plus other cities, such as Aberdeen, Dundee and Inverness.

Just to enlighten you, Holyrood Park is not, as you suggested, on the edge of the city. It's entirely within the city. The Park is surrounded by suburbs, stretching from the River Forth to the north and the Pentland Hills to the south.

What a lovely couple - Haste ye back - Hope you can visit the highlands and the isles of Scotland! Shame about so many visitors at Arthur seat - So many visitors have been watching Harry Potter films, now all of a sudden - Scotland has become famous! I Don't live in Edinburgh now! I used to work in Dean village when there was a sheep tannery back then! I could not believe my ears when you mentioned in your blog that you paid £18 to enter Edinburgh Castle to watch the one o'clock gun being fired! Shocking! It was free for many years! Scotland has so much history that you should Google and come back and visit the real Scotland up north and try out the Cullen skink which is a creamy soup made from cod and tatties! The single malt whisky made from the purest water in the world and is known world wide, even Scottish gin, iron Brue and so much more Scotland has to offer!

@@SirKonrad Yeah, deep fried mars bars are a tourist trap thing. Next time you visit Edinburgh, if you want an authentic chip shop experience, ask for a "deep fried pizza supper". It's the real deal. Deep fried battered frozen pizza and chips. I'm not joking BTW. And if you are sampling this delicacy in Edinburgh, you have to eat it in the authentic Edinburgh way . . . slathered with brown sauce . . . none of that salt and vinegar nonsense. You can also order a "haggis supper". I'll let you guess what that is!

3:24 Given that the motorcade is heading towards the Scottish Regional Assembly Building, it's most likely a criminal. 4:54 Yes, the ridge in the distance is the edge of the boundary fault that is the geological border between the Lowlands and the Highlands. It runs from SW to NE so it's a lot closer to Glasgow than it is to Edinburgh.

I love the shots that you are trying to do, but the faster panning shots are hurting my eyes. Maybe it is the lens, maybe the sensor isn't in a high enough frame rate, maybe it is the video compression.... I'm no expert. But they seem really juddery, especially when panning across areas of high detail like a city scape or a historic wall. The very slow panning shots and fixed shots are beautiful though

Eventhough I really like your videos, you should not feel privileged enough to moan about other people being around, sounded so weird, you are not the only person going and visiting Edinburgh so it is only normal that there are people around you who has climbed the hills to see the city like yourself!

When you see black Land Rovers and Range Rovers in the convoy it's pretty much guaranteed that it's royalty. Criminals don't get that level of comfort and Scottish govt is not valued enough to warrant that level of protection.

I notices that you have the Scottish flag (Cross of St. Andrew.) in your videos but then in your videos of England you show the Union flag. The Union flag is for the United Kingdom. The English flag is the Cross of St. George. The Union flag has never been the English flag and never will be. Nice videos. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Jack

We used the Union Flag first with all the videos we made in England and I guess considered it for all of the UK but thought it might be nice to use the Scottish flag when we made the Edinburgh video last. Very good point though and we will likely use the English flag for future videos when we’re back! Thanks for watching!! 🙂
