- Royal Edinburgh Ticket - I only include this pass to advise against it. At £49.50 it covers two days of hopon/hop-off bus service (which is otherwise £14/day) plus entry to a trio of attractions: Edinburgh Castle, Palace of Holyroodhouse, and Royal Yacht Britannia (total standard admission: £42.10).
