    Had a wonderful tour! Allister was great, giving us insight into the history of the castle. We took the 11:30 tour which allowed us to be inside the castle for 1pm cannon launch. Our group was small and personal. At the end, he gave us some local recommendations which we found to be fantastic. Book this tour!

    Alistair is brilliant..... he is full of really interesting stories, while sharing all of his knowledge from a historical perspective. Because Alistair is so passionate and such a great communicator, the time absolutely flew. He left me wanting more, and that's the reason that l say, Alistair is such a brilliant guide.

    The Castle is bigger than you would expect, having a guide lets you see key sights with an explanation of their history or importance.

  • Interesting guided tour with sympathetic guide

    Our guide, who grew up in Edinburgh and looks likeable, had a lot of interesting sneaky information about the Castle and Scotland as well as about the city. Can only recommend!!
