London's a pretty good place to visit, but IMO it's not worth driving there from scotland just to see it.

I love scotland, it's well worth a long drive through the highlands, and seeing the Nevis range.

phat - save your pennies! ...seriously though, its not cheap. with the cost of this trip, i could pay back nearly a quarter of my student loans.

koolman - i thought of this. briefly. like less than 0.04 seconds haha then figured it would make me feel to awkward like imposing. and extra awkward saying: hey, thanks for letting me in. now what about the GF too... pleeeeeease.

also, i have added myself to the wait list for top gear tickets JUST in case

Plan your trip based on the location of Villagers! Couch Surf for as long as possible!

Great way to travel cheap, meet Villagers, and do things as a local would instead of touristy .

I'd suggest avoiding London. It's a bit of a pointless cliché to go there as a tourist.

Regarding Scotland: If' you're willing to spend a good chunk of time, consider heading to through the highlands and to the west coast of Scotland - Get over to Oban for sure, maybe to some of the isles. You'd want to take your time through the highlands, though, which is why I say take a couple days - don't just go straight there and back. If not, St. Andrews makes a good day trip. And that's all on top of whatever time you spend in Edinburgh - If you want pub recommendations while you're there, let me know.

After that, head south and do what you will. A stop at Lindisfarne would be nice.

Edinburgh Castle, loads of Lochs around that part of Scotland (may be a bit of a trek though)
