Great Introduction to Edinburgh

Published on Sep, 2023

We really enjoyed our walking tour with our guide, Fran. Her stories brought the city alive for us plus we really got our bearings on our short trip to Edinburgh. Thank you, Fran!

Worth the personalized touch

This tour was amazing and super personalized! Robert was an amazing tour guide and walked me through so much of Edinburgh. I totally recommend.

Excellent tourguide!

Published on Nov, 2021

Our guide obviously knew a lot about Edinburgh and it's history. She answered many questions we had well. After this guided tour we kind of know the what and how of the town, which made the next few days much easier for us. And we had a good laugh as well! Can totally recommend this!
