Capital to host Airbnb project

Visitscotland has launched a new tourism initiative with Airbnb to give visitors more “authentic experiences” of Scotland.

The Experiences collaboration in Edinburgh will allow Airbnb users to look at recommendations from local experts such as kayaking among Scottish wildlife, making shortbread with a professional baker and learning to cook with a top food blogger.

The Scottish capital is the first UK city outwith London to host the Airbnb Experiences.
