What to expect
Old Town Edinburgh is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The tour travels around the Old Town to some of the best restaurants and cafes in town. Many of the restaurants and stops we visit are in the Old Town.
The Royal Mile is the center of Edinburgh's Old Town. The street actually has five names, but we'll cover that on the tour. We will spend roughly 15 minutes on the Royal Mile seeing some of the highlights between restaurants and cafes.
More accurately known as the High Kirk of Edinburgh, we will pass by and cover the history of this beautiful church.
Advocate's Close is one of the best photo opportunities in Edinburgh. The tour might even stop at a legendary establishment very close to the close, but for sure we'll stop here for a photo.
The tour will either have views of Edinburgh's 250-year-old New Town, or we will visit amazing establishments in the New Town.
A tribute to Sir Walter Scott, this gothic monument was once the tallest monument for a writer in the world.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
