Visit Scotland's capital city and see it through the eyes of a local Edinburgh tour guide, for an authentic introduction to this unique UNESCO World Heritage Site.

From a Royal Mile walking tour to a stroll through the Georgian-era New Town, there are more things to do in Edinburgh than a guidebook can tell you...
​
Walk in the footsteps of iconic figures from Scottish history, like Mary Queen of Scots, Adam Smith and David Hume. Discover world-class architecture, along with a wealth of literary and artistic inspirations.

Explore a living, breathing, historic city that is as modern as it is ancient, and find out what life has been like in Edinburgh over the last 900 years!
