Having a folk-lorist as the guide makes for an engaging and (at times) funny guided tour. Toni provided a lot of visual detail about the history of Edinburgh castle- from geological details (" We like putting castles on high volcanic rock") to the life and times of Mary, Queen of Scots ("She made three mistakes and it cost her her life!".) They also customised the commentary to the audience (E.g. pointing out fire fighting related anecdotes (one of our group was a LA based firefighter) or talking about the Scottish Royal Jewels and their provenance being local and not borrowed (unlike the English jewels) - which was of interest to the South Asian members in the group). Excellent experience. Highly recommend.

Brilliant !! Very informative 1.5 hour with delivered by gentle wry humour underlying with Jack who clearly knows his subject. He points out the historical inaccuracies of Braveheart and tells why Royalty were not keen on living in Edinburgh Castle....If you have only one day in Edinburgh, then I'd certainly recommend this tour - it is outside so be sure of the weather ! Very good value.

Jack ist a very nice tourgide with a great voice (clear and strong, even understandable over the traffic-noise). He tells Scottish history in a lot of stories. His sense of humor make us laughing even if Scottish history is a mostly brutal topic.

Dress warmly as weather can change quickly and it gets windy, any time of year. Size of group was very manageable and our guide David was very well informed. Size of group was 15-20 ppl, Remember to keep your ticket handy to get in (physical not mobile ticket) that the tour guide will give you. We liked our tour and were happy we booked a month ahead because castle sold out in the am.

James was very detailed in his descriptions when telling us about the castle and the history relating to it and he delivered it with great banter…… it was very enjoyable and I would recommend taking this tour. Having toured the castle on my own before, I definitely learnt more from the guided tour. 10/10
