Reviews of Edinburgh Tours

Fantastic 5.0
The Glencoe and Glenfinnan tour was absolutely worth the price! We had an amazing time, not only exploring the breathtaking scenery but also enjoying the journey on the coach. Our tour guide, Ash, was incredibly nice, friendly, and entertaining. We especially loved his great taste in music, which made the long drive even more enjoyable! What impressed us most was how talented Ash is—he drives the coach while giving informative and engaging commentary at the same time! He made the history and stories behind the places we visited so interesting. The stunning landscapes, great music, fascinating stories, and Ash’s wonderful personality made this an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended, and if you’re lucky enough to have Ash as your guide, you’re in for a fantastic day!

The arrangements were nearly perfect. Originally, we had difficulty getting entry tickets to Edinburgh Castle on their official website. While most travel agencies no longer have tickets for the day, we managed to get ours on Klook. The QR code was issued in less than a minute. The waiting place was convenient and the tour guide, Ignas, was easily identifiable. Yet, Ignas spoke with a very strong Scottish accent, which made it not always easy to follow. So, although he was very knowledgeable and helpful, the details of the description were not always fully understood. Nevertheless, the view at and from the castle was magnificent. Even though the path looked very steep and far from the city centre, it wasn’t difficult to get there. The rooms were definitely worth visiting. The souvenir shop also sold gifts that were exclusive to the castle. we also met the Queen and King James for a lovely photo. I would definitely recommend this visit.

my guide and driver for the day was Keith (09 May 26). I chooses the lochness and highlands tour . the drive was very informative and educational, I am able to appreciate the history of Scotland and the highlands . The areas that we went to and nature was beautiful too. The drive felt safe and I was also able to appreciate the scenery along the way .

Itinerary: Arranged by the travel agency, but sometimes mixed with a Scottish accent, so your English listening skills need to be strong enough to understand the guides along the way. Accommodation choices: Fantastic, most of them were quite good, but some require cash, so be sure to check in advance whether credit cards are accepted. Tour guide: Excellent. The spots visited were all amazing, and being a local, the explanations were spot on. If you're interested in history, listening to them is definitely the right choice. Attractions: Each one was better than the last, making every penny spent well worth it.

This is particularly good for travelling with elderly who are less able to walk. Our family were able to have a glimpse of the city without walking up and down the slopes. The staff are all helpful and friendly. Would be even better if we could see a clear display of the name of the stop we are at (like those you can see on the train).

The Old Town and Underground Ghost Tour in Edinburgh was a really enjoyable experience, mainly because of the tour guide, James Douglas. He was extremely active, social, funny, and knew exactly how to keep everyone engaged. His sense of humor made the time fly by. Honestly, during all my travels, I have never had a tour guide this entertaining and energetic. He was genuinely very good at what he does, and it made the whole experience much better. I was expecting a little more from the tour itself besides walking around the city and visiting the underground tunnel area, but I still learned a lot about Edinburgh’s history and its magnificent architecture. Big thanks to James Douglas for the wonderful time and positive energy throughout the tour. Definitely one of the most memorable guides I’ve had during my travels.

The Hop-On Hop-Off bus is a fantastic way to see Edinburgh’s attractions. The commentary was informative, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The live tracking through the app was mostly accurate and overall, it was a convenient way to explore the city.

More about Edinburgh Tours

What to expect

Tours in City of Edinburgh typically mix guided walking routes, history-focused commentary and easy-to-follow logistics, making them ideal for first-time visitors and history fans. They tend to suit people who enjoy a structured way to see highlights with local insight, and most are fairly low-impact on fitness while involving a fair amount of walking.

How to choose

Pricing for tours sits in a modest band around the mid-range; entry-level options are generally budget-friendly and stripped-back, while the upper end offers more specialised or small-group experiences with added extras. The price spread is wide enough that there’s real choice at both ends — if you want comfort and depth, expect to pay toward the higher side; if you just want straightforward sightseeing, the lower tiers will do.

When to go

The busiest month is June, when demand and crowding are noticeably higher and popular slots fill up faster, while February is the quietest with much lighter booking levels and a calmer atmosphere. If avoiding crowds matters most, plan for February or other off-peak months to enjoy easier availability and a more relaxed experience.
