Escape the tourist trail with this private New Town walking tour - find hidden gems off the beaten track with a stroll through 250 years of history in Edinburgh's Georgian-era 'New' Town...
Just a stone's throw from the Old Town is the city's historic New Town, a major eighteenth-century development that marked the first time the city was truly able to expand, built from the 1760s onwards.

Choose between a two- or three-hour fixed-route tour through this sumptuously designed area. Along the way enjoy the spectacular architecture, and uncover some of the true hidden gems that many visitors never see, and (on the three-hour route) explore two outlying suburbs - Dean Village and Stockbridge - which tell their own stories of how Edinburgh grew and expanded.
The tour finishes at the top of Calton Hill, to the east end of Princes Street, with panoramic views over the whole of the city centre. |
