Tour a pie por la Milla Real y el casco antiguo





Descripción
Este tour es dirigido por Edinburgh Guided Tour — un pequeño equipo de guías excepcionales, incluyendo historiadores de doctorado, un profesor y un administrador del museo. Cada guía escogido cuidadosamente por su inteligencia y calidez. Su pasión por Edimburgo brilla en cada historia que cuentan, desde el escándalo real hasta el genio de la Ilustración, desde Harry Potter hasta los pícaros históricos. Mantenemos el tamaño de nuestro grupo pequeño, nunca más de 12 invitados, para que cada participante disfrute de una experiencia personal. ¡No te esfuerces por oír en una multitud de 30! Nuestros huéspedes nos dan constantemente comentarios increíbles. Estos no son tus guías promedio. Harán que la historia cobre vida. • Visita guiada a pie de la Milla Real y alrededores • Ver los cierres secretos y wynds y todos los sitios principales • Conozca a los famosos escritores, poetas y economistas que han hecho de Edimburgo su hogar • Visita lugares famosos como la Catedral de St Giles, Grassmarket y Greyfriars’ Kirkyard • Aprovecha para capturar algunas increíbles oportunidades fotográficas

Very nice tour with Stuart Surprises information
Dear 214fami Thank you for your great Review of your Tour with me. I am delighted that you enjoyed it so much. Best wishes Stuart U.
We had a fantastic tour with Alastair Sim around Edinburgh and the 3 hours flew past! We loved that the tour was full of interesting stories that bought the place alive (rather than just quoting dates!) and it was tailored to our interests - even including facts related to our occupations. Highly recommend this tour. Thank you Alastair :)
Dear Jade Thanks a million for your superlative Review of your Tour with our superb guide, Alastair Sim! You sound as though you really enjoyed his expert story telling and the fact that he tailored the Tour to your interests as well. We also give you our great thanks for your recommending us so highly. Best wishes Stuart Usher.
Our guide, Steuart, was very knowledgeable and engaging. The tour started on time and the small group was nice!
Dear Trish Thank you for your Review with our Steuart Watkins. We are delighted that you that you enjoyed the Tour. Best wishes Stuart Usher.
Dr. Alison was a wonderful guide—engaging, funny, knowledgeable, and an excellent storyteller. Everything was very well-paced, and we arrived at our final stop less than 2 minutes before the 1 o’clock gun—incredible timing!
Dear Avery Thank you very much indeed for your great Review of your Tour with our engaging Guide, Dr Alison Duncan. She is all you so kindly say of her. Edinburh's famous 1 o' clock has given great pleasure (and frights) to countless people ever since it commenced firing 170 years ago! Best wishes Stuart U.
One of the most informative visits we’ve taken on tour. 3 hours and David (former National Museum Historian) gave us incredible insights into what we were seeing and why. Three hours flew by. The best part was this company doesn’t cancel if you’re the only couple. We had a private tour because we were the only Wednesday night booking. Tip: visit ATM beforehand for tipping money. This “tap to pay” culture leave little room for gratuity to be added so cash helps.
Dear Jeff A million thanks for your most glowing Review of your Tour with our wonderful guide, David Forsyth! the time does indeed fly past when one is in the company of a guide like David. We also appreciate your comment about our business never cancelling even when there are only one or two people booked. We also like your comment on the "tap to pay" culture so prevalent these days. You really must visit our ancient city again some day! You will be more than welcome. Best wishes Stuart U.
One of our best walking tours ever! Allison Duncan did an amazing job of introducing us to Edinburgh's history, architecture, and folk lore - and was so personable in her presentation and keeping the group engaged. It was an educational and entertaining three hours and covered so much information. Highly recommend - don't miss this tour!
Dear Crose. "One of the best walking Tours ever". This is very high praise and we at Edinburgh Guided Tour very much appreciate including this in your glowing Review! Alison is one the leading Guides in Scotland and is very good at keeping all those who who tour with her fully engaged We are delighted that your learnt a lot and hope to see yu again in our fair city Best wishes Stuart U.
This was our first trip to Edinburgh and we thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour of Edinburgh Old Town and Royal Mile. Our tour guide Fiona was a wealth of knowledge and was very personable and friendly. The pace of the tour was just right. Highly recommended.
Dear Richard A thousand thanks for your superb Review of your Tour with our equally superb Guide, Fiona! We are delighted that you enjoyed your Tour with her so much and also that the pace of the Tour was just right. And thanks for recommending us so nicely! Best wishes Stuart U.
Make sure you wear your walking shoes and bring water because while it was a very informative trip, it was exhausting going up all those hills!
Dear Adina Thank you for your great Review of your Tour with me. You are right about plenty of uphill walking in the Old Town so potential bookers of our Tours please note! Best wishes Stuart U.
Alastair was a great tour guide. The information he provided was interesting and he took our interests into account. Lively stories of Edinburgh history. Small group experience was nice… 12 people instead of the other tours with masses of people wearing headphones.
Dear Dana Many thanks for your super Review of your Tour with our Alastair! We are glad that you mentioned that we have a maximum of 12 Tourists on all our Group Tour walks. Those tourists in large groups of up to 40 tourists on them can never engage with the Tour Guide properly; hence their giving up and donning their headphones. Thank you again! Best wishes Stuart U.
This tour was one of the best things my daughter and I did on our 10 day trip to Scotland. Our guide (David Forsyth) was wonderful, used our names, and was extremely knowledgeable. You do not get this on those large scripted tours. I highly recommend Edinburgh Guided Tour to anyone visiting Edinburgh.
Dear Timothy Great thanks to you for your magnificent Review of your Tour with our great Guide David Forsyth! You are dead right about those large groups being not at all conducive to really learning about the history of our great city of Edinburgh. That is why one often sees some of those Tourists on the Tour with, wait for it, their HEADPHONES on!! Many, may thanks again. Best wishes Stuart U.
