FIXED ROUTE TOUR OPTIONS

  • ​My ROYAL MILE TOUR explores the backbone of the historic Old Town, focusing on the closes and wynds of the medieval city, as we travel from palace to castle.
  • My NEW TOWN TOUR takes you on a journey through 250 years of history in Edinburgh's Georgian-era 'New' Town, with local hidden gems that many visitors never discover.
  • My combination OLD AND NEW TOWNS route contrasts styles and stories from both sides of Edinburgh's city centre, from Old to 'New'... and back again!

​And I offer a self-guided experience which is NEW for summer 2020:
  • My CLOSE ENCOUNTERS self-guided audio trail will introduce you to some of the history in the Old Town lanes and alleys.
