Bird watching is one of Boquete’s main attractions with over 900 species of birds present in the area. This is the most accessible region of Chiriqui’s highlands where the beautiful Quetzal bird can be seen thanks to the conservation of the forest and the aguacatillo tree that provides the Quetzal with its favorite fruit.

The National Museum of Scotland presents the nation's history and global collections across two architecturally distinct buildings. The modern Museum of Scotland building (opened in 1998) is dedicated to Scottish history, from geological origins to the 20th century. It connects to the original Royal Museum, a Victorian masterpiece with a stunning glass-roofed Grand Gallery housing an eclectic collection of artefacts from world cultures, rare gems of natural history, and numerous science exhibits. Together, they showcase everything from Dolly the Sheep and Ancient Egyptian mummies to the Scottish Maiden — a predecessor to the French guillotine.

Where the mighty Zambezi River plunges 108 metres into a basalt chasm, Victoria Falls — or Mosi-oa-Tunya (The Smoke That Thunders) — carves one of Earth’s most dramatic spectacles. Spanning 1,708 metres along the Zambia-Zimbabwe border, this UNESCO World Heritage Site reveals its full fury between February and May when floodwaters transform the falls into a thunderous curtain of spray visible from 50 kilometres away. By November, the dry season unveils the geological artistry of the underlying gorges, including the yawning Boiling Pot whirlpool where the river's full force churns violently. On the Zambian side within Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, jungle paths lead to the Knife Edge Bridge where visitors brave drenching mist for heart-stopping views of the Eastern Cataract and Rainbow Falls — the highest single drop at 108 metres. The adventurous can descend a steep trail to witness the Zambezi's power at the Boiling Pot, while keeping an eye out for resident baboons and bushbuck. For broader panoramics of the Main Falls and Devil's Cataract, the Zimbabwean side offers unparalleled vistas, especially striking during low water periods from August to January when the falls separate into distinct cascades. A valid passport allows easy border crossing to experience both perspectives. Unique phenomena abound: during full moons, lunar rainbows materialise in the night spray, while Livingstone Island (seasonally accessible) lets visitors peer directly into the precipice where Dr Livingstone first witnessed the falls in 1855. Morning visits provide the clearest views before afternoon spray builds, with waterproof gear essential in wet season. Helicopter flights reveal the falls' full grandeur from above, showcasing how the entire Zambezi funnels through a narrow 110-metre cleft in the basalt plateau — nature's own hydraulic masterpiece. Whether you come for the dry season's geological theatre or the wet season's deafening roar, Victoria Falls remains Africa's most humbling natural wonder, where rainbows dance in perpetual spray and fish eagles soar above gorges carved over millennia. The falls' enduring power continues to captivate, just as they stunned Livingstone, who famously declared: "Scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight".

Beneath Edinburgh’s South Bridge lie a network of 18th-century chambers known as the Underground Vaults. Originally used for storage by bridge merchants, these damp, lightless spaces later descended into slums, illicit taverns, and hideouts for criminals and body snatchers. A one-hour guided tour will lead you through this spooky labyrinth, with costumed guides sharing dark tales of the city’s past inhabitants, from the desperate poor to the infamous Burke and Hare body snatchers. For daredevils seeking a stronger thrill, the same operator offers themed variations. These include ghost tours focusing on paranormal activity, tales of persecution and witchcraft, or visits to a nearby cemetery, often incorporating displays of historical torture devices.
