Description

Come and join us for the original free walking tour of Edinburgh’s historic Old Town and enjoy the stories of the many colourful characters who lived here. Since Edinburgh’s first festival in 1947, our trained local guides, all volunteers who love their city, have shared their knowledge with visitors from all over the world. Our tours leave from the City Chambers on the High Street at 10.30am and 2.00pm and last about 90 minutes. Step with us into Scotland’s rich history. Tripadvisor awarded us the Travellers' Choice award in 2020, 2022 and 2023.
