Rosslyn Chapel Wallace Monument and Dunfermline Abbey Tour

Definitely recommend this tour

This day trip was a highlight of our visit to Edinburgh. Our driver Brendan was very knowledgeable and funny, we learned lots about the places we visited, including little stories only a local would know. Rosslyn Chapel was my favorite as well as the Wallace Monument. Definitely recommend this tour with Brendan.

Exclusive Small Group Guided Edinburgh Potter Tour

Fun tour that makes you appreciate how Edinburgh inspired JK Rowling

Charlie was a great guide! You could tell how passionate he is about the tour and making it a great experience for everyone. I asked some in depth questions around JK Rowling’s relationship with Edinburgh and information about the Edinburgh spots that she was inspired from, and he could speak well to these questions, which I appreciated. Would recommend!
