Rope. Neck. Put'em together.

Don't pay to go up Edinburgh Castle. Go to Holyrood Park and hike up Arthur's Seat. Its an extinct volcano with the best views of the city and docklands. Check the castle out from High Street but don't get suckered into overpriced pubs and dogshit merchandise sold by chinks and jeets.
Get some good seafood, a pint and a cheeky dram of scotch in Leith. Most authentic part of Edinburgh away from all the tourist shit.
Go see a footy match if tickets are available. Scottish footy is pure soul and an amazing experience even if its amateur shit most of the time. Hibernian are closer to the city core, Heart of Midlothian is a bit further away. Closer to the airport.
Also if you want to bars or clubs go to the spots near University of Edinburgh. Tons of fit birds who love hooking up with out of towners as long as you're not subhuman.
Have a good time OP! It's definitely a top 5 city in the British Isles, maybe even the best!

the chip shops will make more than just fried mars bar
almost any chocolate bar
