Beautiful tour in Edinburgh - I went on a tour of Edinburgh's New Town and Dean Village. It was a wonderful experience. Our guide Alessandro was really very good! He engaged us with his explanations and references to the history of Edinburgh and its most illustrious citizens as well as with anecdotes and tips for our stay. I was also struck by his concern for our group (not particularly young) walking not too fast as sometimes can happen. I highly recommend this beautiful tour and this guide.

The sympathy of Armando - My daughter and I spent three very pleasant hours in the company of the guide Armando, the supervisor Fabio and two other Italian tourists. In addition to the preparation of the guide, we appreciated his contagious enthusiasm, sympathy and availability. Armando made us feel at home, giving us the opportunity to interact with other participants, in a fun and friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend Armando to discover the wonderful Edinburgh!

Edinburgh Old Town and University area - Great tour explained well and with the right dose of history, culture and anecdotes. It helped to understand some things studied in books. Time flew and the driving proved to live up to expectations.

Two fantastic experiences - Jacopo drives very professionally. The three-hour morning tour and the two-hour ghost tour flew. Pleasant to listen to, clear and very prepared.

interesting walking tours - We did two walking tours, the old city and the new one. The second was more interesting and engaging. The guide, a young boy named Emanuele, was very nice and explained everything with passion (for this we forgive him some historical inaccuracy). Congratulations, keep it up! A little more superficial is the tour of the old town made with Armando (eg Greyfriars cemetery told us nothing, while there was probably a lot to tell). Instead we found the guide quite insistent on the "voluntary" figure to give, when he pointed out that in the emails Scotland Tour has definitely told us that there is a minimum of xx (which, as you see on the Scotland Tour website is not true, is instead indicated that you give an offer based on liking). He should have put the same fervour into it when he told us about Edinburgh... In summary: Emanuele really committed, Armando seemed much less passionate. Both tours however give a nice view of this magnificent city.
