the world's your oyster. Hillwalking in the Trossachs is great fun.Also mountain biking. Glasgow is also very interesting, with lots of history, art and museums and great shopping facilities.

EAT AT AL LOCAL SHOP...Bites -- just across the street for breakfast or lunch is good! As much as I appreciate that the hostel has food nearly 24/7 -- it is pricey, and they have opened it to everyone, not just hostelers -- it is cutting into the local economy...hurting the locals in the process.

First, get on one of the hop on/off tour buses to get an overview of the city. Decide what you really like. Otherwise, Camera Obscura, Whiskey Experience (tour & tasting) -- across the street from each other; hiking: go up to Arthur's Seat (at bottom of Royal Mile); or just wander off the beaten path into the "private sector" to see how the real people live...
13 Apr 2011 Debra J, USA:
Galway! A must. (From Dublin) did a two-tour (sandwiched by one night) trip to Galway, courtesy of Dublin Tour Bus company & Galway Tours for 75 euro--*included* the overnite stay! Beautiful tours of Connemara area & Cliffs of Moher with exceptional tour guides.
Don't miss... 25 Mar 2011 Courtney, USA:
Make a visit to Scottish Parliament and climb Arthur's Seat.
