Traveler reviews
Excellent tour
A great tour, full of historical facts and fun! Our tour was during the Fringe so it was very busy, but Jess took us to quieter areas so we could fully enjoy it. Jess was fab, very passionate and knowledgeable about her home city but also interested in our questions. She was super engaging and energetic for the full 2 hours. This tour is the ideal way to start your trip to Edinburgh, would highly recommend.
Best way to learn and wonder around Edinburgh!
The tour was great got to wonder around the most emblematic areas of the old town of Edinburgh while Euan our guide told us all about it in a fun, digestible and informative way, perfect combination of history, stories and even some poetry. Would highly recommend.

We were able to experience a tour through the Old Town with Campbell today. It was an experience, his knowledge, his stories, and not least his refreshing manner! Many thanks for two exciting hours in Edinburgh ♥️
