You will be guided through the grounds of Edinburgh Castle.

Koffee was so good! As soon as we heard he studied history and rambled on about his passion for it, we knew we had a good guide! He was interactive, energetic, personable and attentive!! Thank you Koffee

My visit to Edinburgh Castle was truly memorable thanks to Max. His tour stood out because he presented the history from a genuine Scottish perspective, making it feel authentic and engaging. Instead of just listing facts, he connected events to Scotland’s identity, struggles, and culture. His storytelling made key figures and moments come alive, and his explanations were clear and well-paced. The experience felt much richer than a typical guided tour. I would recommend exploring the castle with a guide if you want a deeper and more meaningful understanding of its history.

Pay attention to the meeting place instructions. Wear good hiking type shoes because of inclines throughout.

Koffe was a great guide! Enthusiastic and entertaining, he kept us organized and moving. Highly recommend for anyone - especially a family with kids - who wants to learn more about the castle go as early as you can muster - it gets crowded as the day goes on.

Ben, our tour guide, did an excellent job! One of the issues I usually have with tours like this is the guide wanting to give all the information and non stop talk without giving you time to let the information sink in. I thought Ben did a wonderful job of balancing talking and giving us time to explore, digest the information and ask questions. He was able to present the information in a fun but concise way, which was definitely appreciated.

Her voice carried very easy, no issues to understand or hear her. Sabrina from Spain was our guide. I have been on many guided tours and she was one of the best ones. She made sure we were all together and even pointed out where the bathrooms were. She was very expressive in describing history. Would most definitely want her as a guide.
