The ride was smooth. And the views were beautiful. See more stories on Insider's business page. I boarded a Caledonian Sleeper luxury train at London Euston station, where I had access to a private lounge with drinks and snacks. I was headed to Edinburgh, Scotland. I boarded a few minutes before my A porter met me outside my car to take my breakfast order.

Coffee or tea? My cabin had a locking door, which would have been handy if I'd chosen to wander the train. My room was tiny and cozy. I fell asleep as soon as the train started rolling, missing my chance for cocktails or a glass of wine in the Club Car. While I slept, the train passed through small towns. My journey took about eight hours, and I slept through most of it.

When I woke up, the train was stopped on the tracks. I opened the shade to my first views of Scottish greenery. It was a foggy morning. My en-suite cabin had sleeping masks and earplugs. Following your open top bus tour you head to Edinburgh Castle, where your ticket has already been paid. This much-loved fortress has been involved in many historical conflicts since the 12th century and stands guard over the city from atop the Castle Rock. See the dazzling Scottish Crown Jewels and pose for photos with unbeatable panoramic views of the city skyline in the background.

Take the second day to explore Edinburgh as you wish. You might explore the Royal Mile, the popular tourist spot of many streets forming a thoroughfare linking the two most famous landmarks in Edinburgh - the Palace of Holyroodhouse and Edinburgh Castle.

Holyrood Palace is the official residence of the British monarch in Scotland, and also a popular place for tourists to visit. There are many museums to visit in Edinburgh, such as the National Museum of Scotland, one of the top ten UK visitor attractions. Admission is free donations welcome and it is open daily, with the exception of some days over Christmas. There are many other museums and galleries in Edinburgh to choose from; or, if you are in need of some exercise, a walk up either Calton Hill or through Holyrood Park and Salisbury Crags will give you some spectacular views of the City of Edinburgh.
