5.00This Tour was everything we had hoped for. I fell in love with Edinburgh. But, the best part of our tour was our guide, Tom. He went above and beyond and included so much history and humor that we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!
Excellent tour and guide

5.00Had a fantastic tour of the city with our guide Paul. We all thoroughly enjoyed it. If you can afford to do it it's the best way to see the city. Thank you for a memorable experience.
Not worth the money, misleading

3.00A little misleading. We thought we were going to go inside Edinburgh Castle, but we basically gotten driven around and shown the sites inside the city without actually getting to experience them. Our driver did pick us up at Waverly station and helped with our bags. He was helpful in that way. I don't think this tour was worth the money, though.
Perfect way to get an overview of Edinburgh with a fabulous guide!

5.00Our family (2 adults, 2 teens, 2 senior citizens) all absolutely loved this tour, and Tom could not have been a more perfect guide! He was funny, personable and professional and provided us with an outstanding tour of the beautiful city of Edinburgh. (He was also easy to understand, which had been a bit of a concern ahead of time with two in our group a bit hard of hearing and also unaccustomed to the accent.) A couple of the originally planned stops were blocked from all traffic because of events going on the day we were there, and he quickly adapted and found a great Plan B as we went. We hadn't realized in advance just how hilly and large Edinburgh is, so we learned as we went that this was the only viable way for us to have seen so much in our short weekend stay. We did this tour day 1, then were able to revisit spots we wanted to explore more and also check out some of the recommendations Tom gave us along the way. Everything
Fun, interesting and enriching

5.00Our tour was great. Our guide, Tom took us to places that would take a week to see on our own in a matter of four shortbhours. His informative commentary really shed light on the great town of Edinburgh.
