I think a lot depends on your own personal circumstances.
I spend quite a lot of time moving up and down the Royal Mile but that’s due to working at one end of it and having nursery about two thirds of the way up.
If I wasn’t dropping the Captain off or picking him up I could avoid the Royal Mile entirely and walk to and from work through Holyrood Park. In fact I’d avoid pretty much the whole Festival if I picked my route.
Were I still working on George Street I’d only cross the Royal Mile once in each direction. Or course George Street has been drawn into the Festival café society in recent years.
