Great Food Tour!

Published on Mar, 2025

We had a great guide with Ailsa! A great mixture of different kinds of food, drink and beer mixed with history and wonderful venues. I would recommend to friends.

Intro to Edinburgh

Published on Mar, 2025

Great little tour of historical businesses with local favorite food and drinks. We loved the Scotch eggs, meat pie and doughnuts! It was our first stop in Edinburgh, so it introduced us to not only the local cuisine, but also the area including several closes and streets I’m sure we would’ve missed on our own. Ailsa was friendly, fun and knowledgeable. Our group enjoyed our 3 hours and would recommend this tour for future travelers.

Amazing Tour! HIGHLY recommend!

Published on Mar, 2025

A sunny afternoon in Edinburgh

Published on Mar, 2025

We had a fab afternoon with Andre our guide. He was very knowledgeable about Edinburgh and the food we tried was lovely and hearty (no need for a big breakfast before) My favourite was the cheese and the haggis
