A little complicated to get the right one, you have to go through Viator messaging to get it after the purchase on the site. It's hard, but it's okay. Otherwise the castle itself is just fantastic. An audio guide is available and I enjoyed going around the castle alone, without a guide. We let ourselves be carried away by the very good infrastructure of the visit which offers us a complete tour and fascinating exhibitions without forgetting the breathtaking view.

We really enjoyed the tour of the Edinburgh Castle. It is a lot of walking and a lot to see. Give yourself plenty of time to see everything.

The entrance was not enabled! It was cancelled the day before the scheduled day for the visit! I had to buy another!
