Overview of your Edinburgh tour:

Thinking as a visitor I thought what would set me up for a stay in Edinburgh! That's why I created this tour so you could get a real sense of the two sides of Edinburgh. It orientates you to the city centre and helps with the planning of the rest of your stay. It lets you see a city rich in culture and ancient history blessed with beauty, mystery, many famous people, so you can experience this city from someone born here, also the birthplace of the likes of Sir Walter Scott, Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle so stories abound Bringing the old town to life for you as we stroll along its narrow streets, revealing the secrets that lie hidden in its dark closes of how people lived and some of the famous and infamous characters of the old town! Edinburgh's elegant Georgian 'new town' sometimes thought of as the Athens of the North, where you will get a sense of Edinburgh moving into a more classical, modern, enlightened capital city. My style is storytelling to inform and entertain you!
