Andy was wonderful! Very knowledgeable and very interesting. He made sure we got to see the usual spots and a couple extra spots we wanted to see.
Highly recommended this type of tour. So worth the money.

We booked multiple things with Edinburgh Cab Tours. We booked two transfers (EDI to hotel and Edinburgh city center to Glasgow city center). We also booked the 4 hour tour of Edinburgh + a few hours to see the Kelpies and Falkirk Wheel. We also booked a completely customized tour/drive to visit our ancestral home in the New Abbey area.
Andy was great and we felt like we left having made a new friend!

Andy was an excellent tour guide of Edinburgh. We had already seen some parts of the city, so Andy made sure we didn't go back to places we saw. He altered our tour to bring us to new places we hadn't seen. He was very knowledgeable and even made sure to keep our teenagers attention by sharing interesting facts that appealed to them. He was very responsive when I reached out to him.
