Worth every penny. We had looked at a few options and this was clearly the right one. Squeezed it in around a work trip and it was worth the time.

Private guide in Edinburgh: the Riverside walk
A private guide who knows Edinburgh properly — a medieval Old Town on an extinct volcano, with the Highlands beyond. No coach, no rush, and the day bends to what you actually want to see.

About this experience
Your guide is a historian or an architect who has lived in Edinburgh for years. The day is yours: they will show you what they would show a friend, skip the parts that are only worth a photograph, and find you a table for lunch somewhere locals eat. Because it is private, the pace is whatever suits you, and you can change the plan as the day goes on.

Beautiful setting and very well run. The timing gave us plenty of room to explore at our own pace. Went with my partner and we both enjoyed it.

Superb
The photos do not do it justice. We spent far longer here than we planned to. Went as a group of four and everyone was happy.
