I would have enjoyed this more if it wasn’t so crowded. As it was, I was just ready to get away from the place. I went in to see the crown jewels and got roped into this whole tourist maze. Not what I wanted out of my visit. I enjoyed some of the other castles much more, because we were practically alone visiting them. Craigmillar and Lauriston are just on the outskirts of Edinburgh and well worth a visit (unfortunately I did not get inside Lauriston), and you will have them entirely to yourself!
