The hop-on hop-off bus tour was an excellent way to explore Edinburgh, especially for first-time visitors. It made getting around the city easy and convenient while covering all the major attractions, including the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, and more. The audio guide was informative and easy to follow, sharing interesting history and fun facts about the city. The flexibility to hop off at different stops, explore at your own pace, and then hop back on made the experience stress-free and enjoyable. The buses were comfortable, frequent, and offered great views from the upper deck—perfect for sightseeing and photos. This tour helped us get oriented and see a lot of the city in a short amount of time. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a relaxed and efficient way to see Edinburgh.

This is the best ticket for you if you only had a 2 days in Edinburgh. First day we did all the attractions then the 2nd day just relaxed on the bus and got off on some of the places like Calton hill and climb to Arthur’s seat. Amazing experience. Really recommend Klook

Engaging guide who injected both history and humour in equal measure in her talk. The ticket is for single entry so it’s recommended that you stay on within the castle compounds after the tour to explore the 13 museums. Area is small so tour groups aren’t allowed unless it’s an open area.

Such an incredible trip! The Scottish Highlands were absolutely beautiful — Glencoe’s scenery was breathtaking and Loch Ness was peaceful and mysterious. The guide was friendly and shared lots of interesting stories. A perfect way to experience Scotland’s natural beauty! 🏞️🐉

Adam was a great driver and guide. we felt very safe aboard the bus. He mixed the right amount of commentary with downtime with music. We chose this tour for the locations, knowing we didn’t want to trust ourselves to public transportation. really good experience. would recommend. Please bring Adam snacks when you return to the bus. :)

We had a pleasant trip with Rabbie’s. The bus is quite comfortable although the seat is kinda cramped. The guide/driver is nice and friendly. The route we went through is very pretty and scenic and the cruise is the highlight of the trip.
