He has lived in Edinburgh all his life and even went to a university on the Royal Mile! He teaches in a local primary school. Robert will wear traditional Scottish attire for your tour. We don't think you can get much more local flavour than this!

Our favorite walking tour!

Published on Mar, 2025

We had a great time on this tour! Robert was knowledgeable, respectful, charming, and witty. He asked for our interests at the beginning and would point out extra things that were fun for us to see. It was the perfect length. Highly recommend!

Royal Mile with Robert

The four of us on our tour had a really great experience on the Royal Mile! Robert was an excellent tour guide—friendly, informative, and funny as well. He thoughtfully inquired about our interests and customized his commentary to suit.
