Itinerary
Hear about the history of the old and new town
Take a captivating and leisurely three hour walk around the Royal Mile. The Old Town, steeped in history, will both surprise and delight you as your guide shares his knowledge of the historical, cultural and architectural splendour of Edinburgh and shows you the sites, 'closes' and homes associated with its magnificent cast of characters.
Hear about everything from the Kings and Queens to the rogues and rascals (and Edinburgh had its fair share of the latter). Hear about the philosophers, poets, authors and inventors who made Edinburgh their home. Enjoy stunning views as your guide talks about the exquisitely varied architecture of the city.

About Edinburgh
Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, rises on volcanic hills, with a castle on a crag, a medieval Old Town and an elegant Georgian New Town.
Edinburgh Castle crowns Castle Rock and keeps the Honours of Scotland, the Scottish crown jewels. From there, the Royal Mile runs downhill through the Old Town, past St Giles' Cathedral and a warren of narrow closes, to the Palace of Holyroodhouse and the Scottish Parliament. Arthur's Seat, an ancient volcano, rises above the palace with sweeping views.
