Edinburgh walking tour - Stuart was awesome. Great tour and he is loaded with Edinburgh knowledge and history. Answers questions in detail. He makes sure you are satisfied with answers. Lean in to him for restaurant suggestions and for other things to do in Edinburgh. Great local knowledge. I would highly recommend this tour and Stuart did not disappoint.

Extraordinary tour of Edinburgh - Our small group of four had an amazing experience! The tour timing was perfect — we didn’t get tired, yet we saw and learned so much about the city’s history, traditions, local culture, and landmarks. Our tour guide was professional, knowledgeable, and created a friendly, authentic local atmosphere. Highly recommended!

City Guide - We were supposed to be a small group tour but I was the only one! My guide Andrew gave me a very thorough tour of the city! Per his suggestion, I did Calton Hill the next day! You can tell he loves Edinburgh!

Nice Tour with the Best Guide! - I take a lot of tours with Viator and this guide was one of the very best: Pleasant, professional, had an opinion but offered it with diplomacy, knowledgable and yet with all that, he was still an excellent storyteller! Congrats to the very best guide, James Stewart! I hope everyone else is as fortunate as us to get James as your guide!

This tour is a fantastic... - This tour is a fantastic value. I not only learned about the history and story of Edinburgh, but I learned about amazing contributions from Scotland to science, common phrases, and how it all impacts today. I also had the good fortune and luxury of being the only to sign up for the time of my tour, and they did not cancel my tour! Instead I had an unintentional private tour and my guide was wonderful enough to tailor some of the stories to what he learned about my interests along the way. I traveled alone and scheduled this tour for my first day to help me get a sense of the city right away, and my guide gave me a great walk through of it all. Strongly recommend for solo travelers on their first visit!
