We had a great time. Our tour guide was informative and was a great storyteller with a great knowledge of the town. You could tell he really likes his job. I only wish we had a longer tour so he could tell us more! If you’re lucky enough to get Scott as a tour guide, you will not be disappointed.

Our guide was amazing! The earphones worked beautifully as we meandered through the busy streets of Edinburgh. His stories were not only interesting but delivered eloquently. I’m so glad we opted for the tour of Edinburgh Castle. We walked right in at arrival and it was a sold out day.

Margaret Ann was a good tour guide and we enjoyed walking the wonderful Royal Mile and hearing stories of long ago and how Edinburgh was hundreds of years ago. We ended up at Edinburgh Castle where most did the tour inside the castle but I did not. It was a beautiful day and I enjoyed the grounds around the castle, such a beautiful spot.

Great overview and history of Old Town and introductory tour of Edinburgh Castle with plenty of free time afterwards. Charles was very knowledgeable. The headsets were really nice to have so you didn’t miss a word even if you fell behind to snap a photo or take a closer look at something. Excellent tour, excellent guide, excellent company

Took this tour with Linda and she was fabulous. Not only was she a wealth of knowledge but she was extremely funny and the time flew by. Just as a note I tried to book it with the castle tour, but I was unable to do it on Viator. However when I arrived they said it was still available and our entire group did the castle tour afterwards. However, we had already done it in the morning.
