I had so much fun on this tour, and I learned a whole lot, too! Robert is an expert communicator and he's definitely the real deal when it comes to his knowledge of history and all related Edinburgh facts. My existing schedule prohibited meeting at the available times listed on TripAdvisor, so I contacted Robert directly, told him of my dilemma, and asked if he had any suggestions. Boy, did he! He suggested not only a different time to meet, which worked with my existing schedule, but also a different place to meet, which was closer to my lodging and therefore allowed more leeway to assure my on-time arrival. Wow. How kind and flexible and agreeable is that? And that's how I found Robert to be throughout the hours I spent with him that day, learning all about Edinburgh and its history. Kind, flexible, agreeable, an excellent communicator, and full of knowledge that I would love to confidently possess! Admirable! There he was, standing on the Castle Esplanade, as easy to pick out as he said he would be, and off we went for some terrific fun! I highly recommend this Private Royal Mile Walking Tour. I've signed up for private walking tours in nearly every large city I've ever visited over the past decade. THIS TOUR -- Robert's tour -- is probably the best, most enjoyable, most worthwhile private walking tour I have ever taken. I highly recommend! Thank you, Robert, for making it the joy that it was!
I'm so touched by everything you've said here! I do love what I do, and I love meeting guests like you, people who come with such a passion for my home city. However, to read words like these? That's truly special! Thank you for this very kind review. Thank you for reaching out when it might have seemed the tour wasn't going to give you what you needed for the best start in Edinburgh. Thank you for helping me make sure that we could get the right tour for you, and a massive thank you for everything you said here. I hope you had an easy return journey. Best wishes, Robert
Robert provided a thoroughly detailed tour of Edinburgh. He welcomed us warmly and was very knowledgeable about everything we saw as well as questions we asked! Would recommend highly!
Thank you for this! Your class were, unsurprisingly, a credit to you and it was lovely to spend some time with them. Even though it was incredibly busy, and it was a blisteringly hot day, they were engaged and respectful to other Old Town users and to me too. I was really impressed. Lovely to see you!
Excellent tour! So helpful to add context to all things Royal Mile. Robert also pivoted to showing us other places of interest as we toured.
It was an absolute pleasure to take you all around the Royal Mile and Old Town. Your children were a delight to spend time with and showed impeccable manners throughout the tour. I do hope it's not patronising to say that they were a credit to you both. Best wishes, Robert
Our guide, Robert, was knowledgeable, accommodating and flexible. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you so much for this very kind (and really speedy) review! I do appreciate your words, and the fact you did this on your valuable vacation time. I hope you had a wonderful time here and that your journey home is smooth and relaxed. Best wishes, Robert
Robert was the quintessential local guide and host. As an Edinburgh born and raised educator, he brought the fascinating history of this city to life. Robert supplemented his talks with historical charts and pictures. We especially appreciated him agreeing to start the tour near the castle and end near the palace.
Dear Randy, Many thanks for this very kind review - thank you also for writing it whilst still travelling! I do hope your return journey was as relaxing as possible. Your cruise sounded idyllic, I'm glad I was able to add a wee bit of Edinburgh to it. Best wishes, Robert
Our private tour with Robert was one of the things I was truly looking forward to on this trip. From the moment we met him, we felt welcomed and comfortable. He tailored the entire tour to our family’s needs and pace, especially considering we had young children with us. He was so patient and kind with our children, Daphne and Gabriel, always making sure they were comfortable and enjoying the journey. He picked us up from our hotel and immediately set the tone with his warmth, patience, and genuine care. He shared stories and history in such a captivating and respectful way, showing us both well-known landmarks and hidden gems. His passion for Scottish culture shines through in everything he does. He was also incredibly helpful, even going out of his way to push our stroller up stairs, steep paths, and uneven ground and he did it all with a genuine smile. His kindness and positive spirit did not go unnoticed. One moment that really touched me was when he offered to take photos of us using his own phone because my hands were full. It was such a thoughtful gesture, and the pictures came out beautiful memories we will cherish forever. We are incredibly grateful for the experience. Thank you, Robert, for making our time in Scotland unforgettable. Highly, highly recommended. (I will definitely encourage my family and friends to visit Edinburgh and book a private tour with Robert.)
I cannot thank you enough for everything you did on this tour. You were generous, helpful, enthusiastic and great company. People like you make tours wonderful. I was deeply touched by everything you said in this review, especially knowing you wrote it while you had so much going on! It was an absolute pleasure to meet you all. I'm very glad to have done some of my 'buggy/parenting internship' with you - your Mum's comment there did make me laugh! I hope you have a wonderful family time, and I hope we meet again. Yours, Robert
Fabulous tour of the Royal Mile right from the start outside Holyrood Palace. Lots of interesting stops along the way with plenty of history interlaced with great stories that really brought the past to life! Robert is a great storyteller and even provides pictures that help you imagine what it was like to live and do business hundreds of years ago. He was also thoughtful and made sure our pace was comfortable and manageable. Would highly recommend this tour.
Thank you for this lovely review! I really appreciate that you mentioned the stories and the pictures; it's what I hoped I'd given you, and I love that it worked for you. Thank you for your custom and for being such a great group on this tour. I hope you had a wonderful time in Scotland. Best wishes, Robert
Having visited the Castle and the Palace we decided we’d like a little more knowledge about the characters, architecture and history of Edinburgh. Robert certainly engaged and amused us with his fascinating stories and bag of props. He took us at our own leisurely pace, avoiding steep steps into little back streets and secluded gardens. We recommend a stroll with Robert will give you much pleasure and many memories of Edinburgh.
May I say a huge "thank you" for so many things here? The fact that you spent part of your precious vacation time to give me this review is really touching. You didn't need to do it so quickly, but I really appreciate it. Thank you also for booking a tour with me, and a similarly huge thank you for your kind words and for the title that makes me really smile! It was great to spend time with you in my hometown, and I really enjoyed your enthusiasm for the things we saw. I hope you have a wonderful time here and a safe return to Sydney. Best wishes, Robert
It is both factual and humorous. Finding out about the characters that shaped Edinburghs history. Robert was very knowledgeable and easy to learn from.
Dear Cynthia, Many thanks for booking this tour and for being such an engaging couple of guests to take around my home city. I hope you both had a wonderful time and enjoyed the rest of your vacation. I also hope the golf side of things went well too! Best wishes, Robert
Robert was simply brilliant. What a wonderful tour he presented to us. He was fun, knowledgeable, flexible, curious,... and listened to us while adjusting the Tour to meet our interests and needs. He stopped 3 or 4 times at 'sitting spots' for us while he spoke, so that a few in our party could rest sore hips or feet - always sensitive for our safety, too. A helpful, very kind young man with a good Scottish sense of humor! Loved the Tour. Thank you, Robert. Cheers always.
Dear Mike, I had an absolute ball with you all on this tour! Your sense of humour was excellent and I really appreciated your interest in my home town. I hope you had a great evening after my tour and I also hope that you all had a truly wonderful time in Scotland. Best wishes, Robert
