5.00Amazing city, fantastic tour, best of all our guide, Stuart! His commentary, humor, warmth and professionalism made the day very special. Subsequent time walking around the city was spent recalling all sorts of anecdotes from him. Thank you again, Stuart!

5.00We had a very enjoyable tour with our guide Keith. He picked up at our hotel at 9AM. We went to various places with him including Dean Village, Carlton Hill, South Queensferry, Leith, Craigmillar Castle, Brackfriars and Edinburgh Castle. Keith was friendly, informative and knowledgeable about Scotland's history and was able to enlighten us on the geography of various parts of Scotland. We highly recommend him and we would choose his company again when we come to Scotland again.
Second Tour as Good as the First!

5.00In August 2024, we had the pleasure of visiting Edinburgh and going on the Coastal Charms tour with Stuart Watt. We were so delighted with the day that when we came back to Edinburgh in August 2025, we once again requested a tour with Stuart, but this time it was a custom, bespoke tour that was put together based on our interests and requests. Again, it was an amazing day with every detail taken care of, including a perfect lunch in a quaint coastal town, visiting a loch, petting a highland cow and plenty of history to learn about. We highly recommend TRIPorganiser Scotland and Stuart as our guide and would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends!
My husband and I did a tour of Edinburgh. It was wonderful Stuart was so knowledgeable and we saw some beautiful sights!

5.00Chris was very accommodating and we had a wonderful tour. So much to see and learn in Edinburgh. The 5 of us - from 12 to 84 years old loved it.
Worth it!

5.00Stuart was amazing - he was creative, flexible and full of great information! There are so many things to see & he found a way to get us a great overview with our limited time here.
A personalized day that maximized our short time in Edinburgh but never felt rushed - with something for all

5.00Stuart was an excellent tour guide and Beryl was great reaching out beforehand to make contact and set things up in advance. Our cruise docked somewhere other then expected but I reached out the day prior and we were able to plan accordingly. Stuart picked us up on the dock and set an itinerary with domething for me and the kids. I loved the history and they surprisingly loved the botanic gardens. He had to improvise with the King being in town and dome traffic flow concerns but he made the most of our time even showing the kids highland cows on the way back to the dock and we made the cruise with time to spare. Professional company. Well organized. A+++ guide.
Fantastic history and lots of laughs

5.00I can't say enough about how WONDERFUL it was to spend two day with Sean and Stuart. We did Edinburgh Unveiled and a bespoke transfer to Inverness. Beryl and Ashley were wonderful to work with on trip planning. Sean and Stuart were absolutely amazing. They attended to our every special need (we had two wheelchairs). It was the perfect mix of information and laughs. I honestly wish we could have booked them for our entire two and a half weeks. I've done many tours all across Europe, and I can honestly say this was the best time. I can't recommend them enough.
Great day in Edinburgh
