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.

About Edimburgo

Edimburgo, capital de Escocia sobre colinas volcánicas: castillo en un peñasco, casco antiguo medieval y elegante Ciudad Nueva georgiana.

El Castillo de Edimburgo corona Castle Rock y custodia las Honours of Scotland, las joyas de la corona escocesa. Desde allí, la Royal Mile desciende por el casco antiguo, pasando por la catedral de St Giles y un laberinto de estrechos closes, hasta el Palacio de Holyroodhouse y el Parlamento escocés. Arthur's Seat, un antiguo volcán, se alza sobre el palacio con amplias vistas.
