Fantastic Crawl in Edinburgh! - This is definitely one of the best crawls I've been a part of. TJ is an amazing guide. He was interactive, kept the energy of the group high, and even helped me with recommendations for things to do in the city. The others guests were also so nice and it was a lovely group of people. Would definitely recommend it for anyone looking to experience Edinburgh nightlife!

What a night! - Honestly, I didn’t know how we would go. Not sure if we would have a great night or not. Well. We didn’t have a great night. We had a FANTASTIC night!! Met some amazing people and hit some good drinking spots. I would highly recommend this tour. It’s not just for the young ones it’s for any one of any age.

Amazing Guide, Great Pubs, Perfect Night - We had a fantastic time on the pub crawl in Edinburgh! The atmosphere was great, and it was a fun way to explore the city’s nightlife. Our guide, Subbu, was excellent—very helpful, proactive, and made sure everyone had a good time. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Edinburgh!

A really fun night - Me and my friends were staying in Castle Rock Hostel and arrived Friday when the pub crawl was happening so signed up. We wanted to go out in Edinburgh on the Friday anyways so this was perfect. £10 for entry into 6 bars/clubs, free shots in all of them and discounted drinks was an excellent deal. A great time was had by all. I do wish we had stayed longer in Stramash as this was our favourite because they had a live band but other than that a really good way to see some of the night life Edinburgh had to offer.

Terrible Hosts - Ok I have done many Pub Crawls in different cities but this one would have to have had the worst hosts ever. Not at all trying to engage the group. A host job is to engage the group one was constantly pacing around like he was worried about something and constantly on his phone. They never kept the group together except when we walked to the next bar and everyone dispersed. I engaged with other patrons at the hotels and not from the group. Get extrovert Hosts these guys were so bad at everything. Save your money try another group if you want fun.
