Overview of your Edinburgh tour:

Having worked in the castle and guided their own tours I feel qualified to unveil its history and highlights, and with time for you to go explore further for yourself. Then we will look at the city its ancient history and how its changed in my lifetime as a born and breed Edinburgh lad. The old town (auld toon) with its dark closes and behind the scenes, then in stark contrast into a more modern, enlightened and commercial Edinburgh its classical Georgian New Town. My style is storytelling to inform and entertain.
