Description

Come and join us for the original free walking tour, packed with the rich historical sites and tales of the many colourful characters around the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town. 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, start at 10.30am and 2.00pm, last for about 90 minutes and can cover our late Queen’s final procession route in Edinburgh. Visitors have consistently awarded our tours five stars on TripAdvisor.
