What are people saying about Edinburgh

Lee_R, Aug 2026

Fantastic Day Trip – Highly Recommended

We thoroughly enjoyed this tour.. It was a long day of approximately 13 hours, but it was well worth it. The tour covered an amazing amount of territory and gave us the opportunity to see so much of the spectacular Scottish Highlands in a relatively short time. Our tour guide, Stephen B, kept us entertained and informed throughout the day, combining fascinating history with great stories and delivering them in his own uniquely humorous style. His knowledge and personality really added to the experience. If you have limited time in Scotland but want to see as much of the Highlands as possible, I would highly recommend this tour. Not only do you get to experience some truly breathtaking scenery, but you also gain a wonderful insight into the history, culture and stories that make this such an amazing region.

Amazing trip to the stunning Isle of Skye

Very well organized trip to the stunning Isle of Skye. Our driver and tour guide Tongs was amazing and took care of everything very well. We started on time and covered everything that was planned. The B&B in Portree was pretty good and was located in the middle of the town close to the restaurants and stores. Isle of Skye is a must visit destination for nature lovers. An absolute must do trip!

Edinburgh Darkside Ghost Tour of Mysteries and Murder and Legends

Missy_C, Jul 2026

You MUST book this tour!

Charles was an excellent tour guide! He was captivating, funny, and knew his Scotish history! We walked from old town to new town and saw some great sites along the way... An AMAZING visit to a very old graveyard and the trek uphill to where all the witches were hung, had the most gorgeous views of Scotland! Hands down, this was our best tour on our vaction!!

Edinburgh Hop-on Hop-off City Tour with Live Guide

Claire_M, Jul 2026

Best money we spent in Edinburgh

Best money we spent in Edinburgh. Would highly recomened, tour guide was interesting and knowledgeable and the hop on hop off was perfect for us travelling with a buggy and a 7 yr old saved a lot of crying about walking and sore feet (and this was just me lol) and were able to see so many more sights.

Edinburgh: The Kelpies, Stirling Castle, Loch Lomond & Trossachs

Jodi_N, Jul 2026

Perfect day trip

This tour itinerary was exactly what I was looking for and the pacing of each stop was perfect! My family doesn't like to be rushed and have time to see the sights and also relax a bit. Stirling Castle was the highlight of our day, but the Kelpies, Loch Lommond/Luss and Falkirk Wheel were all great too! Highly recommend this tour!

City Sightseeing Edinburgh Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour + Kids Go Free

Renell_F, Jul 2026

Great way to get to know the city. Highly recommended!

The hop on hop off bus was a great way to see the city and take a much needed walking break. We recommend booking the 24 hr pass which we didn’t do, but wished we did because the buses are a great way to get around the city at a low cost. You can plug into the guided tour and hear all about the landmarks as you pass them. It helps us get our bearings so we knew what we wanted to visit later. We loved this experience and would do it again.

Hogwarts Express and Scottish Highlands Tour from Edinburgh

Whitney_E, Jul 2026

Tour was simply the best

Laurie was the best tour guide. She drives like a Formula 1 driver through the highlands and it paid off because we beat everyone to the viaduct and even had time for a bonus stop to see highland cows. Her history lessons and playlists made the drive educational and entertaining. Make sure to sit on the correct side of the train so you can see the viaduct as you pass over it.

Best of Scotland in a Day Very Small Group Tour from Edinburgh

Kandis_P, Jul 2026

Highly Recommend this Tour!

This was a terrific tour. Perfect amount of time on the van and perfect amount of time at each stop. Never felt rushed. Keith was awesome! I also liked the variety of stops - waterfalls, coos, shopping, and more. I was traveling solo and would recommend it for solo travelers.

Amazing day full of Scottish beauty! We love tour guide Holly (and her little helper Harley!)

Our family had a wonderful time exploring beautiful Scotland with tour guide Holly and her little helper Harley! Even with a very full bus of tourists, Holly was an expert at navigating and creating a fun, lively experience for everyone. What a well-spent day!
