Our family of four had a fantastic tour of Old Town, New Town and Dean's Village with Gerry. This was the perfect way to get a historical overview of the city at the start of our visit. Not only was Gerry knowledgable and engaging, he was very flexible with timing and accomodating to a last minute schedule change. We will definitely be recommending his tour to any friends coming to visit this beautiful city.
Thank you S & C for this great review. We managed to cram so much into our time together; Old Town, New Town, Dean Village and Stockbridge. That's a lot of walking. And if we have flexibility in our diary then we will let you know. It all worked out in the end. I hope the weather held up for you on your trips to Glasgow and Durham with your family and that you will come back to my home city again in the near future. Thank you again. G.
Easy to understand, even for foreigners, because Gerry speaks calmly and clearly. He is a true treasure trove of knowledge and is highly recommended. He also knows the small paths alongside the main route as well as an incredible number of stories about houses and buildings, flags, and symbols.
Hi Axel & Torsten, Vielen Dank für diese Bewertung! We had a great day together and spoke about so many subjects. Both about Edinburgh and your home town in Germany. And I’m glad your English is so much better than my German. I know you were continuing to the Scottish Islands on the whisky trail and I hope this went well. Remember to get in touch if you make it back to Edinburgh again. Gute reise !
Gerry is a nice guy. He’s a resident of Edinburgh with an impressive knowledge of every corner of the city. He even recommended a few wonderful historical pubs.
Hello Ian, Thank you for this really welcome review of our day together. As happens at this time of year, the weather was changeable but it stayed dry and mild and we managed to see a lot. I hope you, your wife and family enjoy the rest of your visit to my city and that you come back again soon.
This is one of the best tours I’ve ever been on. My husband and I learned an immense amount in just four hours. The tour operator/guide was so knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. He made it very comfortable and fun.
Hi Susan, Thank you very much for your review of our day together. We packed in as much as possible of Edinburgh. I loved hearing about your home life and walking exploits too. You and Rich had come a long way and were seeing a lot in your first time to Scotland. Did you make it to Plockton/Skye? Thanks again and hopefully we will meet again when you come back.
A very friendly and personalized 4 hour walking tour sampling history, architecture and culture of New Town and Old Town. Gerry, the tour guide is a very friendly and knowledgeable local, who makes the city come to life with his understanding of history as well as current events. 100% recommend.
Thank you very much for your kind review of our day together. Although Edinburgh wasn't new to all your group we managed to see some new things of interest and put them into a historical context. Say hi to Antoinette and Dennis for me. Enjoy the rest of your time in Scotland and Haste ye back.....
Gerry was an amazing tour guide. My husband and I were very impressed with not only his historical knowledge but also with his kind and caring demeanor. He also gave us wonderful dinner suggestions- all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend!!!
Hi M & A, Thank you so much for this review. We had a great day in the city seeing parts of the New Town and Old Town. The weather held up well and it turns out those restaurants were pretty good..... Please come back with the whole family soon.
Jerry, our guide, weaves historical facts into stories that are so interesting and memorable. Jerry knows so much about the city, not because he’s learned it from a book or school, but because he’s lived it as a member of the community.
Hi Mary Thank you for your very generous review of our day together in Edinburgh. We got through so much. I hope your trip to Inverness and Skye has gone well and that we see you all again very soon.
Enjoyable walking tour with Gerry. Informative historical context and pace was tailored to meet our needs. It was good to get an understanding of the city for our visit.
Hi L & J. Thank you so much for this review. I'm glad we managed to get the pace right for you and that we didn't overload you with too much information. Enjoy the rest of your time in Edinburgh on this trip and we would be delighted to show you more of our city when you return
This tour is highly recommended to be able to see the best of each part of the city. Gerry was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. We can’t say enough of how amazing he was and this tour.
Hi Sarah and Matt, Thank you for this very kind review. We had a great day out, had the weather with us all the way and learned a lot from each other. I hope the trip to Islay went well and that you continue to have fun all the way to London and then home. Should you come back to Edinburgh in the future, make sure we do this again.
Gerry has really great. My wife Shannon and I enjoyed his stories both past and present about Edinburgh. We would highly recommend him to others.
Hi Tom & Shannon, What a great day we had. It was such a pleasure to meet you both and the pressure was definitely on after the recommendation from Kristine. And the weather stayed good for us.... I hope the trip to Stirling was interesting and that you enjoy your time on Skye. Thanks again and please pass on our best wishes to everyone. see you next time......
