Guide Eric's passionate and entertaining explanations were wonderful, and being able to taste the whiskies alongside his descriptions was a great opportunity to learn more about whiskey!

The overall audio-visual equipment was excellent. Our group had a female guide from New York who was very enthusiastic and gave a great explanation. I absolutely loved the whiskey lounge at the end!

really good tour, it’s not a tour of the castle (well a small part is) it’s a tour of the street leading to the castle with a lot of history. our tour guide xander was great! his knowledge and enthusiasm was amazing. I would definitely book this tour if you are coming to Edinburgh.

The Royal Edinburgh Tour was indeed very royal. I learned so much of the history and seen so much. The Edinburgh Castle was magnificent, The Holyrood Palace was wonderful and the Royal Britannia was eye opening.

The Edinburgh Vaults & Graveyard Tour was an amazing experience. It really deepened our understanding of the history behind Edinburgh’s architectural bridge structures and the tunnels hidden beneath them. The graveyard visit was especially stunning, and the tour gave a clear insight into Scotland’s history and culture during that period.
The tour guide, Jordan, was excellent cheerful, helpful, and always willing to answer and explain any question without hesitation. His energy and knowledge made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
Overall, a highly recommended tour for anyone interested in Edinburgh’s history, architecture, and underground stories.

The Alnwick Castle and the Borders Day Tour from Edinburgh was a really great experience and definitely worth trying. The castles speak for themselves beautiful, historic, and full of character. The tour guide also explained a lot of interesting history that made the trip more meaningful and enjoyable.
The guide herself was amazing very cheerful, helpful, and energetic throughout the journey. The Scottish music she played during the ride created a perfect atmosphere and made the experience feel even more authentic.
My only complaint is that I wish the castle entrance fees were included in the package, especially since I ended up paying around £44 extra. Also, the ride was very long, but other than that, no complaints at all.
Overall, I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to learn more about Scotland’s history and enjoy some incredible scenery.
