Located on the banks of the silvery Tay river and surrounded by beautiful countryside and impressive historical sites, charming Perth still lives up to its historic nickname of the fair city. The ancient capital of Scotland and the gateway to Scotland's spectacular highlands, Perth is easily accessible to the more cosmopolitan cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh and combines a small town vibe with an exiting modern cultural scene. Stop by to catch your breath on your way to the more remote highland destinations of the north or take a weekend break from the craziness of the southern cities.
