Edinburgh city tour

Published on Aug, 2023

Clean and comfortable car for 4 of us Paul was great and full of knowledge of the city We had a good time even with multiple city streets been blocked during the festival Recommend

Lifetime of wonderful memories

Published on Jun, 2022

This was a fantastic experience. Alan was professional, respectful, courteous, always mindful of our comfort/care/needs, full of history and interesting facts. So many that we started writing them down so that we could remember them all! We started joking (my daughter and I) saying that we'd make another note of the Fee-isms. Alan's last name is Fee. Worth every cent and more! He gave us the best tips, best jokes, best insight, and most importantly......a lifetime of wonderful memories. I have made a note to keep his contact information and definitely come back and tour with him again. I believe that he is even opening up his personal residence (it's spectacular by the way) as a B&B and if it's available, I'll be staying there with him upon our return! Can't say enough good things about this company. You'd be wasting your money to book with anyone else.

The BEST Tour Guide in the City of Edinburgh

Published on Feb, 2020

Alan was terrific! Enthusiastic, knowledgable, well read, sense of humor and most accommodating! The full day was ours and the four of us enjoyed his professionalism and insight into a truly wonderful City. Looking forward to our next visit and Alan's hospitality.

Fantastic guide made the trip unforgettable

Published on Aug, 2019

We were picked up on time by our amazing guide Alan Fee at our hotel. We spent the full day going around Edinburgh and seeing as much as possible. Alan made us see Scotland and especially Edinburgh in a special way. Alan has a sense of humor, a kindness that made our day special

Best Tour Guide Experience Ever!

Published on Jul, 2019

My daughter did some research on local tour guides when we decided to visit Edinburgh this summer. She looked at several sites, read numerous reviews, and came to the decision that Alan would be our best bet. We booked, emailed back and forth a bit about an itinerary, and were set. We weren't sure what to expect having not used personal tour guides before, but nothing could have prepared us for the outcome. Alan was amazing! He was very well versed in local history and had extensive knowledge in general regarding Scotland and the United Kingdom. Alan made sure we saw everything on our list even managed to squeeze in a side trip to Rosslyn Chapel when we mentioned wanting to go there. The day flew by, and we found ourselves not wanting it to end. I highly recommend Alan's tour guide services through Ecosse Executive. It was the best way to experience Edinburgh and all it had to offer.
