“The Edinburgh and Holyrood Palace event started at the beginning of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh Palace. Then, we visited the most remarkable places on the Royal Mile, such as the Writer’s Museum,  The Witchery by the Castle,  and St. Giles Cathedral. We ended the tour in the Scottish Parliament, where we began the next part of the event: Holyrood Palace.

The Palace of Holyroodhouse is Her Majesty The Queen’s official residence in Scotland. The construction of this palace began in 1671, and since then, it has been a residence of monarchs.  Here, we walked through the historical halls, and exhibitions and finished at the Holyrood Abbey.

In this event, we learned about the history and legends of important Edinburgh landmarks while enjoying the typical Scottish weather. The most fun part of the tour was also the other tour guide: Sawyer. This wee tour guide was a playful and lovely Golden Retriever that walked along with us during the whole tour. Kudos to Sawyer!
