I visit Scotland (well, Edinburgh) several times most years and am always kilted - I've nothing else to wear!
These days up there, I wear my tartans and contemporary kilts fairly casually but always take a full day-wear outfit, just in case it's needed, and for attending the theatre and half decent restaurants. I also wear my Utilikilts north of the border and have experienced no negative reactions at all, in fact I've been told what a good idea it is to have such useful pockets in kilts!
Yes, inevitably, a chap in a kilt is going to be asked to pose for photos in Edinburgh, and it happens to me every time I visit there. Also one is aware that videos and photos from mobile 'phones are often being taken surreptitiously, but it does not worry me. If I have the time I am happy to pose for the tourists.
Go kilted in Scotland with confidence (as anywhere) and you'll be fine.
