    Robert was an outstanding guide. He spent the first few minutes after we met asking us what we were most interested in so he could tailor the tour for us. He provided interesting historical information mixed in with entertaining stories and he has a great sense of humor. We thoroughly enjoyed our private Royal Mile walking tour with Robert and I would highly recommend him.

    The tour was one of if not the most amazing and memorable tours I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. There was an abundance of relevant historical stories and tales that kept the tour interesting whilst also adding in some humour and depth. We also managed to walk around to quite a few different places, yet the pacing was very well planned so your feet do not become sore. There was enough stopping and walking so that you could see a lot of buildings, incredible views and learn about the amazing history of Edinburgh. 100% would recommend :)

    This was the best tour I have ever been on. Robert was absolutely amazing in showing us great views of Edinburgh and teaching us about different historical relevancies. I recommend Robert to tourists and even locals who are striving to learn more about their Edinburgh surroundings. So unbelievably fun. Thank you Robert.
