5.00We really enjoyed our tour with Charlotte. She is thorough and expressive with her explanation. We were lucky to have a group of four (small group is goooood) Best of all, we could understand her English accent (not with strong Scottish accent)!
Charlotte was a great guide.

5.00John is an absolute legend, so happy we had him for this tour, incredibly knowledgeable and fun. But it's his passion for the sites to that shine through. If you're thinking about booking him, do yourself a favour and go with him

5.00A really great tour. Charlotte was our guide and she was very thorough, explaining the history and function of everything in and around the castle. She was also patient and answered any questions we had. There was only two of us on this tour and unlike some companies who cancel a tour when there aren't enough people booked, this one still went ahead, which we were very grateful for.

5.00Visiting Edinburgh Castle was the highlight of my trip to Scotland. The guided tour was exceptionally well organized, starting right on time with a small group, making it easy to hear and interact with the guide and fellow travelers, Our guide was not only knowledgeable about the castle and Scottish history, but also skillful in storytelling and engaging with everyone, including children in our group.
If we could give more than 5 stars we would.

5.00John was truly amazing. We have been on a lot of fantastic tours around the world (and some truly terrible ones) and can honestly say this is up there with the best. He was knowledgeable, chatty and was happy and able to answer any and all questions we had - no matter how strange. You can really tell he cares and even stayed at the end to answer many more questions we had as there was so much he clearly knew but didn't have time to share! A thoroughly enjoyable and informative tour, not to be missed. Thank you again John for a wonderful afternoon.
