​Hello! ​​​My name is Gareth, and I will be leading your private Edinburgh walking tour.
I've lived and worked in Edinburgh since coming here in 1998 for university, and consider myself to be a passionate and knowledgeable ambassador for the city. 

There is far more to Edinburgh than a guidebook could ever tell you – and the best ​way to really discover the city is to see it through the eyes of a local... and because I deliver all my tours myself, you can be confident of a truly personalised tour experience, tailored to you! I really take your tour personally... :)

My Edinburgh walking tours will show you places off the beaten track, and give you a unique experience of Edinburgh, different from that of the over 4 million tourists who visit the city every year.
​
After training as a tour guide with Edinburgh Bus Tours, the city's premier bus tour operator, I worked at Edinburgh Castle before establishing my own tour company.
I set up Edinburgh Expert Walking Tours in 2014 to specialise in small group, private and customised Edinburgh tours - an alternative to the large tour companies providing ghost tours or 'free' tours, to offer instead a more personal, informative tour experience to give visitors a memorable introduction to Edinburgh.

Let me show you the city in a way that suits you!
 I have taken walking tours all over Europe and Gareth is one of ​the best guides.
 Knowledgable, entertaining ... You couldn't ​choose a better guide.
 Like walking around with a very well-educated friend instead of ​a tour guide.
 A great deal of knowledge ... tons of enthusiasm and a good sense of humour.

​As an independent local tour guide I offer gimmick-free, fact-based tours, combined with honest opinion to tell you which attractions are worth the entrance fee, and where you can get more than you bargained for with just a little bit of inside information.
