Overview of your Edinburgh tour:

Let me use my knowledge and expertise to take you on a fascinating 1, 000 year journey down the most famous mile (well 1 and 1/8 miles to be precise) in Scotland. At the end of the tour you will be able to tell your friends about the girlfriend who helped to break into Britain's most impregnable fortress, the door that has one of the earliest drawings of the stars and stripes, the 13 year old schoolboy murderer, the dragons that inspired JK Rowling, the big toe rubbed for good luck and why a statue of a horse has pig's ears! Don't tell anyone but we will also stop for a slice of Edinburgh's famous fudge!

Your Edinburgh tour itinerary

We will meet on the esplanade of Edinburgh Castle and take in the spectacular views across the city from our vantage point. (If you wish to visit inside the castle then I am happy to customize the tour for this purpose). We will wander down the Royal Mile to uncover some of the most fascinating secret's of this amazing 1 mile stretch of land. Such as. . . . * the incredible stories behind the hidden courts of the Royal Mile * the museums that contain the stories of this historical city * the statues of some of the city's most famous inhabitants * the stunning interior of the Royal Mile's celebrated cathedral * the historic buildings and the people who lived in them Our tour will finish at the bottom of the Royal Mile where you will have the opportunity to end your tour in style by visiting the magnificent Holyrood Palace. (Again, I can arrange this for you if you wish to customize your tour)
