Edinburgh has been ranked the 3rd best city in the world, and as a local, I’m excited to show you why!
In this episode we’re going beyond the typical tourist guides to explore the heart of Scotland's capital during the height of the Edinburgh Festival.
We start at the iconic Edinburgh Castle and walk down the historic Royal Mile, but the real magic happens when we go off the beaten track.
Join me as I share my personal hidden gems, from the boutique shops and artisanal coffee of Stockbridge to my local cafe.
