Højdepunkter

Discover the best of Scotland’s capital on a semi-private tour designed for cruise guests who want to go beyond the typical sightseeing loop. With small group sizes, you’ll enjoy a more intimate and immersive experience led by a local guide who knows how to bring Edinburgh’s layered history to life. Your day combines a panoramic drive through the Georgian elegance of the New Town with a guided walking tour of the Old Town, where cobbled closes and historic landmarks reveal the city’s medieval past. From the Royal Mile to Victoria Street and the Vennel Steps, your guide shares fascinating stories that make the streets come alive. With entrance to Edinburgh Castle included, you’ll cap off the day with a self-guided visit to Scotland’s most iconic stronghold, complete with sweeping city views. This carefully curated itinerary offers the perfect balance of storytelling, scenery, and independence—far from the crowds of larger tours.

Along the way, your guide will bring the city’s dramatic stories to life, from medieval trade routes to infamous historical figures. The two hour walking tour fee is included, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in Edinburgh’s captivating atmosphere.

About Edinburgh

Edinburgh, Skotlands hovedstad, rejser sig på vulkanske bakker, med et slot på en klippe, en middelalderlig gammel bydel og en elegant georgiansk New Town.

Edinburgh Castle kroner Castle Rock og opbevarer Honours of Scotland, de skotske kronjuveler. Derfra løber Royal Mile ned ad den gamle bydel, forbi St Giles' Cathedral og et virvar af smalle closes, til Holyroodhouse-paladset og det skotske parlament. Arthur's Seat, en oldgammel vulkan, rejser sig over paladset med vid udsigt.
