Overview
You’ll follow our local Edinburgh host through the quirky, cranky, swanky, antique streets of this utterly charming Scottish city. But hush now, because they’ll be taking you on an experience off the tourist trail and sharing some local secrets. Stroll through a secret garden and discover hidden alleys like World’s End Close or visit a pub with its own four-legged guardian.
Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

Explore Edinburgh with a private host
Published on Jun, 2019
Our host has in depth knowledge about Edinburgh. She managed to show us around and filled us with facts and tales about the city. It's a great fun three hours tour. A 'MUST DO' if you're a first time visitor there.
