Old Town

History Lovers Old Town Walking Tour

Join this intimate 2 hour small group walking tour of Edinburgh's historic Old Town. We cover a variety of historical themes on this tour and take you to parts of the Old town most tourists don't get to visit. 16.30 departures every day.

With so much legend, history and myth surrounding it, Edinburgh's Old Town is one of the most enchanting places in the world you could possibly visit.

On this local's tour, we delve deep into the history of the Old town, which, for most of Edinburgh's history, has made up the entire city.

We cover big historical topics such as the witches trials, the Jacobites, the Reformation, the Enlightenment in Edinburgh, and much more.

Unlike most walking tour companies, we keep this tour to a maximum of x15 people, so you can be sure you're joining a real small group tour!
