It was great to get a different perspective on the city through this walk. The guide, Paul, was extraordinary - knowledgeable, kind, and very passionate about what he was explaining. This was definitely my favourite tour from the ones I took during my stay in Edinburgh. Also, the meeting point was easy to find and timing / organisation was excellent. Not to miss!
