The tour begins with a 2 hour exploration of the Old Town’s many hidden streets and “closes” (alleyways). We focus on Edinburgh Castle for the last hour, taking in the history, atmosphere and amazing views. Don’t forget your camera!

You get a detailed overview of the city’s history and lots of info on things to do and places to eat during the tour of Old Town.The tour will end in the Castle so that you can enjoy free time in the museums and buildings. Perfect for groups of friends, families and even solo travellers, we cater this tour to each private group’s interests.
