Tom was a fantastic guide and really tailored his tour to our interests. He knows the history and culture of the area very well. I highly recommend him!

Doug was waiting for us at the meeting point at the agreed time. We walked together around the city explaining the most important aspects at each stop. Great stories and valuable historical information. He is an easy going and flexible guide who we recommend to contact, specially if you want to cover the best places of this beautiful city in a short time visit and at your own pace.

My entire family enjoyed our day with Gee! He was adept at conducting our outing to keep my kids interested but my husband I still felt engaged. He chose a restaurant for lunch and we all enjoyed our food. Even though we'd just met that day, the conversation flowed; his company was a pleasure. I would definitely recommend booking a family friendly tour with Gee!

Fedor’s walking tour in Edinburgh was an absolute delight for our group which consisted of both adult and kids. His storytelling skills were captivating, weaving history and humor seamlessly throughout the tour. We left with a newfound appreciation for Edinburgh’s rich history, thanks to Fedor’s engaging and informative tour.

Fedor listened to what we wanted in a tour, and he showed us parts of Edinburgh that were away from the tourist traps and crowded streets. He was easy to converse with, and we felt at ease. It was a wonderful relaxing afternoon.

Edinburgh is now added to my favorite city list. The architecture is stunning, everything is so captivating. My mother and I took a trip to Ireland and decided to pop over to Edinburgh for a quick 12 hour trip. This day was one of the highlights of our holiday. Fedor, our guide, was beyond fantastic. He really squeezed everything I wanted to see (eight to ten attractions) in our 3 hour tour. The pace was comfortable, the conversation and history was amazing, and again the sights are somthing you def want to see in person. I love City Unscripted because of how much you're able to experience on your tour and how completely tailored to your wants it is. Being with a local guide is so nice. Fedor was friendly, knowledgeable, personable, and at the end of the tour it feels like having been with a friend.

The tour with Doug was great. A very likeable and approachable guide with a lot of knowledge and pleasure in his work. He showed us various pups and explained a lot about different sights along the way. He customised the whisky tasting to our needs and we learnt a lot. Thank you Doug, it was a great pleasure to wander through Edinburgh's Pup with you.
