Overall, it was a lovely tour with enjoyable experiences and interesting places to visit. The only suggestion would be for the guide to speak a little more slowly, so that everyone can follow and better appreciate the explanations. Thank you!

I booked a tour of the Palace of Holyroodhouse on Monday at 4 PM. It wasn’t very crowded, which made the visit even more enjoyable. There’s so much history to discover, especially through the beautiful paintings and rooms. Definitely worth a visit!

The staff were friendly and welcoming. The actors made you felt integrated into the stories told before ya. We enjoyed every minute of the show. Note: no photo taking/filming allowed inside. Pro tip: volunteer to be a character and have fun!

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.

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).

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.
