"A proudly biased, mostly accurate, and deeply enjoyable walking tour through Edinburgh."
What you will gain
Edinburgh, narrated. Explored your way.
Real local guide Historic Old Town route, featuring Mary, Queen of Scots, John Knox and David Rizzio
◎ Stories, banter & questions
◇ Small-group experience
Step into the closes and wynds of Edinburgh’s Old Town with a guide who knows every stone, scandal, and secret this city has to offer. Over the next two hours, you’ll wander through cobbled streets soaked in centuries of history — from the shadow of the Castle down to the heart of the Royal Mile — hearing the stories that guidebooks leave out.
This isn’t a rehearsed script. Expect banter, strong opinions, and a healthy dose of dark humour alongside the history — the kind of tour that feels like exploring with a well-informed local friend, not sitting through a lecture. Along the way you’ll pass the haunts of Mary, Queen of Scots, the fiery sermons of John Knox, and the brutal end of David Rizzio, all brought to life on the very streets where they happened.
Small groups keep things personal, so there’s always room for your questions — whatever direction the conversation takes.
