Sam was our tour guide and was really knowledgeable. We arrived late, it was cold and it rained the entire time but she was really great. I mentioned that I was an Outlander fan and she showed us some of the filming locations which was an added bonus. This type of tour is a perfect way to learn about the city and some history. Thanks Sam!!! I hope you’re friendemey gets more pictures of you with Sam! Thanks for the pigeon. We laughed about that many times!

Josh took us on an excellent walking tour of Edinburgh. He was very knowledgeable and clearly loved sharing the history of the city. The tour encompassed the length of the Royal (Scottish) mile and took us thru court yards, closes, and gardens. Josh also shared his extensive knowledge of the flims made in the area. We throughly enjoyed our time with Josh and would highly recommend this tour! Pam & Bob
