Overview

What a delightful way to spend a couple of hours learning about Edinburgh's rich history. Our tour guide Laura was very knowledgeable and had researched a route the day before to ensure that everything she had planned was suitable for all our different abilities. I was really touched by this. As we wandered, we learned about Edinburgh's unicorn, the origins of an amazing fire service, the Scottish Enlightenment and why we got the nickname Auld Reekie. The tour was fun and full of knowledge.

There is ample parking around the Royal Mile, parked on Chambers Street next to the museum however this might not be practical if you have difficulty walking.

Access

Everything we did on the tour, and that was a lot, was accessible due to the careful research of our lovely guide Laura.

Staff

Our lovely guide have gone the extra mile and researched, in advance, the accessible areas of the tour. It was such a delight to spend the morning with Laura, our guide, and sad we had to say our goodbyes.
