  • Perfect start to the Edinburgh tour with children

    Great tour just with smaller children who are not yet so confident in English. Beryl gives great explanations during the tour and you can also discover great things off the Touri routes. We were out for 2h. Enough for the children and offers a nice introduction to the city break to Ednbra! Thanks to Beryl

  • Great Intro to Edinburgh

    This was a great introduction to Edinburgh. Our fantastic guide, Stuart, took us to see all the highlights of the city to help us know how to spend the rest of our time in the city. Stuart was a fountain of knowledge and a great ambassador for the city. We learned about several hidden gems, great restaurants and pubs to try, and even the best route to take on our hike up Arthur's Seat. I highly recommend this tour as an intro to Edinburgh.
