    Mark was very knowledgeable and covered vast amount of Edinburgh history. The tour gets quite long and only a short period for lunch.

    Mark did a great job of giving Scottish history and putting it all into perspective for us. We were exhausted at the end of the day but are definitely glad we booked this and were fortunate to have perfect weather for this mostly outdoor tour. Edinburgh Castle is amazing in itself and the historical stories make it come to life again.
