5.00We loved this walking tour. It brought Edinburgh alive for us and gave it some meaning. The stories were great. Kieran was a great guide. Changed the tour so my elderly mother who struggles with stairs and large hills could do the walk. We really appreciated it. It was hard to find a walk that was not going up hills
Definitely worth the price and time!

5.00We took this tour the afternoon of our first day in Edinburgh. It was a wonderful introduction to the city, giving us the necessary understanding of the city’s history to enrich our own exploring as we continued our own sightseeing. Given that we hadn’t slept we were worried we weren’t up for the tour, but no worries our tour guide Madge was informative and entertaining, and was the perfect way to start our holiday.
Fantastic Tour and Amazing Guide

5.00We had a two hour walking tour with Kieran. We started on Princes street, enjoyed the park, walked to the Royal Mile and heard about spots along the way. The tour was well paced and informative (without being overwhelming). It was a friendly introduction to Edinburgh to begin our trip. Thank you Kieran!
Great and fun historical overview of Edinburgh!

5.00Madge runs a great tour! We were a large group, but she made sure to gather us around her and speak loud enough for all to hear, while still being aware of others trying to get around us. Her stories brought history to life and provided great context and appreciation for the sights around us. The two hours went by quickly and were an excellent way to spend our first jet lagged arrival day in Edinburgh. Thank you Madge!
Our Guide was funny and knowledgeable
