Safe for women and so much for the price I paid! Total recommend! - This tour was amazing! Free shots, they also clicked our photos, no queueing at bars and a tour guide always with you who is not drunk. I’ve been to multiple bars in the EU, none of the guides have been as nice and trustworthy as the ones I met here. Even when I left the bar, they made sure that I reached home safely as I was drunk. Total recommend!
On The Rocks Bar Crawl is the best way to experience nightlife in Edinburgh!

If you're looking for a fun night out, absolutely do this! Especially if you're on your own - What a fun experience! I was traveling solo and staying at the Castle Rock hostel and decided to go for this pub crawl (I had never been on an organized one) and it ended up being one of the most fun nights I've had in a while. I wish more cities had these kinds of events!

One of the most fun nights I’ve had in a long time! - One of the most fun nights I’ve had in a long time! I’m not someone who goes out a lot but there was something about being a part of a group of other solo travellers mixed with Edinburgh locals that just made me feel really comfortable and made the whole night more enjoyable for me :) I met some amazing people and big shout out to Shubham the tour guide too. It felt like he did a great job of making sure everyone felt included and was having a good time.

Enjoyable experience, much recommended if you’re visiting Edinburgh - I’ve been attending the bar crawls for over a year now and have worked on them too as a guide.
On every Friday and Saturday, some nights can be busier than others, but overall have many fond memories, met many good people and had some great nights.
Starts out at Pilgrim Bar, then Globe Bar, Stramash, Bar 50, Frankenstein and Three Sisters.
Free shot at every bar as well as various drinks deals.
If it sounds like your kind of scene and you’re visiting Edinburgh definitely go along, you never know who you might meet!

Best pub crawl - What an incredible pub crawl experience! Shubham was the perfect guide knowledgeable about each venue, great at managing the group, and his enthusiasm was infectious. He struck the perfect balance between keeping us on schedule and making sure we enjoyed every stop. Couldn't have asked for better!

Highly recommended experience 🫶🏽 - Very well organized schedule, along with great people. Everybody was super welcoming and the chosen pubs were a 10 out of 10. I would highly recommend to experience this at least once!

Horrible experience - The guide never welcomes the group or do anything to get the group together, immediately after arrival we were told to sit down and wait for registration. The club was playing extremely loud music that made it impossible to talk to the person next to you, let alone get to know new people. It was also impossible to know who was a part of the group or not, as the club was also filled up with other people and the group hadn’t been introduced to each other. There was no free drink/shot on the first bar, on the third bar there was only a note that said you would get a free whisky shot after buying a drink, and by the fourth bar we left the whole crawl. In addition to this the guide was very stressed and kept yelling at people to «go, go, go!» every time we were supposed to move from bar to bar, ruining the mood and generally being unpleasant. Would not recommend this pub crawl in any way.
