Lovely Tour of South Queensferry with Marion

Published on May, 2024

Marion took us back in time nearly 1,000 years and told us about King Malcom and his bride Queen Margaret. The South Queensferry first tier is so beautiful and she ponted out many interesting historic sites. We set the pace and she was fine with it. Would highly recommend!

A really great walking tour

Published on Aug, 2022

This walking tour was really good. Marion was lovely and very knowledgeable. We learnt so much about Queen Mary, how the town got its name, the witch hunts, the bridges and loads more. It was an easy walk and we saw the town's beautiful Art garden done by the community too. A truly great walking tour, would totally recommend it.

Family friend day out!

Published on Feb, 2022

I recently went on the South Queensferry Town tour by Walking Tours in Scotland and my friends and I loved it. Our guide was super friendly and knowledgeable about the area and was clearly very passionate about their job and their town. I've been on tours by Walking Tours in Scotland before and they never disappoint! The tour guide took us around South Queensferry like an old pal would and also got our kids involved in the tour! We'll definitely be recommending them to our friends and family.
