Tom was an excellent guide with many stories to match current location. Be prepared for over 5 miles of exciting interpretation.

I was able to learn so much about Edinburgh on this walking tour. Our guide Gwen was very knowledgeable and made sure to tailor our experience to our interests. She also gave us plenty of resources and great recommendations for the rest of our stay.

Very knowledgeable and helped me pick out whiskey to take home with me. Enjoyed every minute of the tour and wished it could have lasted longer but the mobility scooter wasn’t cooperating.

We enjoyed exploring the old town with Graham. He did an excellent job guiding us around to see the sites and learn the history of this part of the city. Graham went out of his way to make sure we had a great place to eat dinner that night as well. Also, this company sent us a short survey before our visit to find out what we wanted to see which was helpful and something I wish other guides would do. I highly recommend this tour.
