Tour guide in Edinburgh Scotland Peter H.

Yes, a Guide Book can help plan a tour of Edinburgh and some Tour Guides can show you the sights. However what I can do, as a lifetime resident of Edinburgh, is bring Edinburgh to life! With many years of walking tours experience, I offer a unique insight into Edinburgh's character, with stories of the famous - and the infamous! My ethos is to inform and to entertain. My private tours provide you with an opportunity to learn about not only the facts, but the stories and tales around Edinburgh's fascinating history. Through previous employment with Historic Scotland, I am an accredited guide for Edinburgh Castle. I offer tours with your own private guide, they can be standard and customised tours and can tailor your needs around the places of interest within this beautiful city. I also offer flexibility with days and times of tours to suit your itinerary. My quality tours are affordable and I would hope by the end of the tour, you will have a real sense of Edinburgh, capital city of that old and ancient land of Scotland. My commitment to personal development as a Guide and Storyteller in Edinburgh includes; Member of the Edinburgh Festival Voluntary Guides Association ( founded 1947) Member of VisitScotland (Scotland's national tourism organisation) Member of The Old Edinburgh Club (founded 1908) Approved guide for Edinburgh Castle (Historic Scotland trained) Edinburgh Universities, course on Storytelling in Scotland Stevenson College Edinburgh, Higher National unit on Scottish History for Tourism (merit grade) Edinburgh Adult Community Education (part time tutor) My tours are rated 4 stars by the Scottish Tourist Board.
