Travel Guide

Scotland is one of the most-sought after and interesting destinations in Europe. Travelers flock here to visit the beautiful castles, cities, explore the Highlands and try to spot Nessie.

Flights to Scotland

When planning to visit Scotland, the first thing to think about is the plane ticket. With so many low-cost carriers flying into couple of Scotland’s airports it’s easy to find a cheap ticket, especially if you fly from Europe. However, a lot of the tourists arrive via London on one of the domestic low-cost flights.

Getting around Scotland

The public transport system is very well organized in every Scottish city. Edinburgh and Glasgow are good examples of efficiency, so don’t worry if your hotel/hostel is not right smack in the center of the town. It’s great if you stay near a tube (underground) or bus station.

To get from one Scottish city to another, the cheapest alternative is to use the coach (bus) companies. There are plenty of connections between the cities. Plus not all cities are connected via the railroad anyway.
