Trip to Scotland, visiting Glasgow
Public transit between England and Scotland are excellent. If you love traveling by buses and trains with the local people, you’ll get to see the scenery. Take the train from London to Glasgow and it will pass you through some amazing countryside.
Started in Glasgow, you can wander through the Trossachs, up along Loch Ness then further North - you will find Orkney. Then down the east coast a little before cutting right across to the west coast on Skye. Read the rest of this page »
From Skye you can go to Edinburgh. Finding a good B B is easy, just use the star or diamond ratings and never choose one with less than four. Getting a great B B is a lot harder and more like pot-luck. If people give recommendations try and find out why they loved the place as their reasoning may not be the same as yours. Pretty much everything is touristy.
