Here are some cool day trips you can do while staying in Edinburgh, Scotland: check out Portobello beach, only 30 minutes away from Edinburgh city center, visit the Kelpies in Falkirk, tour Craigmillar Castle, Blackness Castle, and Doune Castle. Drive to Culross, a frozen in time village, as well as Falkland in the Kingdom of Fife for some fun Outlander film locations.
