    Jim was absolutely fantastic! He worked at the pace that we wanted and took the time to answer all of our questions. He is one of the best tour guides we have ever had. Highly recommend to book him.

    This tour was the highlight of our trip. Our guide, Mojo, was the absolute best. He even brought some traditional Scottish tablet for our son to snack on during the walk. Just through talking as we walked, he found out our personal interests and tailored the tour to that. We learned so much about the history and architecture of Edinburgh and he did it in a way that my 14 year old son still talks about. That's a 5-star experience in my book.

    This private tour was an excellent introduction to Edinburgh! Our guide Mojo was incredibly knowledgeable and provided local context on the past and present of both Edinburgh Old and New towns. We so enjoyed his historical framing of the tour and learning more than what’s on the surface of this beautiful city’s history. It was very helpful that he met us at our hotel so that we didn’t have to backtrack at all during our time together.
