Edinburgh Castle: Guidet vandretur med adgangsbillet
Beskrivelse
Skotlands næstmest populære turistattraktion, mens du lærer om den blodige historie, herunder historier om de konger og dronninger, der boede i dette slot. Der er beviser for et fort her i næsten 3000 år, og det har været et kongeligt slot siden i det mindste kong David I's regeringstid i det 12. århundrede. De skotske monarker fortsatte med at bruge det indtil 1633, og så endda fødslen af kong James VI inden for dens mure. Din tur begynder på Royal Mile og tager dig derefter til slottet, hvor du vil høre din guide fortælle om slottets oprindelse og dets belejringer. Når du er inde i slottets mure, vil guiden tage dig gennem de forskellige dele af fæstningen og fortælle dig dens fascinerende historie. Inde i komplekset finder du tre museer, to fængsler, en hundekirkegård, Saint Margaret Chapel, National Monument over de faldne i Skotland, Great Hall og et kongeligt palads. ikke tilgængelig under turen.)

Melanie was fabulous! She’s an extremely knowledgeable historian and remarkably entertaining storyteller! The BEST!
Our tour guide Gavin was very nice and knowledgeable. He gave us a lot of historical background with some humor sprinkled in at each stop in the tour.
We booked our tour with TripAdvisor based on seeing the positive reviews. We didn’t know about the Fringe festival when booking this, so did learn about this after booking. With the crowds in the streets, it was tough to keep up with the guide as a family with younger children, ages 7 & 9. There is a lot of walking and as it was fine for my husband and I, our kids got tired quickly.
Couldn’t find a ticket by myself because I booked too late. The tour was amazing. Gavin was our guide and it was great!
Melanie was the tour guide.... she told us amazing stories with so much enthusiasm. Truly enjoyed it. Highly recommended!!
Our tour guide, Raj, was brilliant. His understanding of the background of not only the castle, but Edinburgh and Scotland was clearly shown in the way he told it to us with stories and humour. He also paid great attention to my 90yr old, hard of hearing, father by speaking clearly and ensuring he was close by at all times. Highly recommended!
I cant remember our guides name but I really appreciated the fact that he said the names, locations, and/or dates when he started talking and then again after he was finished. He was Scottish and had a Scottish accent but was clear and easy to understand! We originally were not going to go on a tour of the castle but they were sold out (Aug/Fringe festival) of tickets so we checked Viator and they had tickets + tour and truth be told I am glad we took the tour. Seeing the buildings are great but without some of the historical information behind it I think you do yourself a bit of disservice, unless you have done the research yourself. The tour is done outside of the individual building(s) but within the castle walls so once the tour is over you can go explore with additional information. We did the 10 am tour which was perfect because it allowed up to be done with the tour, have lunch and be outside ready for the 1 pm cannon. It was very very very crowded (Aug/fringe) but IMO well worth it!
Nice tour, super disappointed that the barracks were not open. A bit pricey for what you see, but cool. Got all the way to the entrance before we found out we had to meet our tour group clear down at the bottom of the hill.
Mel’s pacing, energy, theatricality, and vast knowledge made our visit to the Edinburgh Castle unforgettable. She spoke clearly and stopped in smart locations such that everyone in the group felt comfortable and didn’t burn out. She prepared us to take advantage of the rest of our time at the castle! Highly recommend this tour.
David was wonderful! Very knowledgeable about the country and history. He was fun and informative to listen to. The castle was amazing and so interesting to visit. Not Wheelchair or stroller friendly. Streets are made for them.
