Mountebank is a hysterical and completely unique walking tour of Edinburgh and the only tour of the city led by a professional, award winning stand-up comedian. Since starting in 2019 Mountebank's success has attracted copy cat 'comedy' tours but Mountebank is the original, best and only tour led by an actual stand-up comic and historian!
Your guide is Edinburgh based stand-up comic Daniel Downie - and his trusty sidekick Brahan the dog! Daniel has brought several sell-out shows all about Scotland to the Edinburgh Fringe and is currently studying for a Masters degree in Scottish history. Daniel has been described as 'outstanding' and 'must see' by the Scotsman newspaper and his show about Mary Queen of Scots was named 'Best History Show' at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Mountebank is all about the hysterical and ridiculous nature of Scotland's history, people, language, weather - all things Scottish basically! So come along and laugh a lot while you learn a little :)

Daniel (and affection seeking Brahan) provided a great and entertaining history of Edinburgh, always with a quip to finish the stories. Daniel's passion for history really came through and I would highly recommend the tour.

Daniel offered us an amazing experience on our walking tour. We learned a lot and laughed a lot! We also appreciated his inside tips and recommendations. This is a must when visiting Edinburgh!

Absolutely loved this tour. A lot of incredibly interesting info, and many, many laughs. More literary and cultural anecdotes than I expected, which were all brilliantly delivered and very welcome among the group. Expect some colourful language and some sharp and well-observed barbs, poking fun at the group. Daniel is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about his subject; a keen intellect that makes him a very good comic, and I am definitely encouraged to follow more of his comedy having been on this tour. We enjoyed every moment.

Daniel’s comedy tour is a great way to learn more about the history of Edinburgh while having plenty of laughs along the way. He keeps the group engaged with lots of audience interaction, and his sidekick dog, Brahan, adds even more fun to the show. The humor is clever and inclusive — suitable for everyone, even Belgians without humor (Daniel’s words, not mine!) and 15.5-year-olds alike 😁. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a mix of history and comedy!

Best tour ever, anywhere! Daniel (and Brahan) were terrific and so funny from start to finish! And very educational as well. Highly recommended as a must do when visiting Edinburgh!

Very enjoyable and lots of laughs. Not for anyone who is easily offended. Daniel had us all laughing and his dog is friendly.

Daniel’s humor, knowledge of Scottish history was the highlight of our time in Edinburgh. He connected with each of us and then built that info into his quips. Many belly laughs were had!
