PRIVATE EDINBURGH WALKING TOURS

Hire a local tour guide for a private walking tour of Edinburgh...
Bespoke Private Edinburgh Tour  |  Royal Mile Tour  |  New Town Tour  |  Old & New Towns Tour
 From the Royal Mile to the Georgian-era New Town, there's more to Edinburgh than a guide book can show you...

I only deliver walking tours, and I only cover Edinburgh - I promise no gimmicks, no costumes, no ghost stories (well, maybe one...) and no Harry Potter. My focus is firmly on exploring the history of Edinburgh, so join me for a fun and informative fact-based introduction to Scotland's capital city!

I offer three fixed route private tour options, featuring a Royal Mile tour, a New Town tour, or a combination Old and New Towns tour - or you can book a fully bespoke, customisable private tour fully tailored to suit you.
Each bespoke private walking tour includes access to my Edinburgh Essentials information directory, with over 50 pages of information, tips and ideas to help you plan your trip and find things to do in Edinburgh before you even arrive!

Avoid the crowds when you visit Edinburgh - for a truly authentic tour, choose to explore with a knowledgeable and experienced local Edinburgh tour guide.
A fantastic tour ... Cannot recommend highly enough!
