Robert was such an amazing guide— knowledgeable and so informative. He peppered the tour with interesting bits about everything we were seeing. We very much enjoyed our tour.

Robert led us on our walking tour and it could not have been better. We walked throughout Old Town - on and off the Royal Mile - and learned so much. Robert tailored the tour to our particular interests and was unbelievably knowledgeable about Scotland’s history and modern cultural and political issues. This is a must do!

We truly had an amazing tour with Robert. Let me preface that statement with the fact that Queen Elizabeth 2 had passed and was lying in state at St. Giles Cathedral when we were in Edinburgh. Iconic Tours gave us the option of cancelling, as our planned tour was of Old Town and many places were now inaccessible. We still very much wanted to tour and Robert made some wonderful adjustments to the three hours we spent with him. Robert had a fabulous sense of humor and was absolutely a wealth of information. We could not have asked for anything better. We did not feel like we missed anything as we went and saw many places not originally planned. We both highly recommend any tour with Robert. Thank to both Robert and Iconic Tours. The best!
