Ross Tillbrook - The Scottish Tourist Guide

My name is Ross Tillbrook and sharing both my home town of Edinburgh and my bonnie wee country of Scotland with visitors and locals is something I’m truly passionate about.

Walking tours, especially of Edinburgh, are my speciality. I can tell you all about the history and characters of the Old and New Towns. I can take you off the beaten track or tailor a walk to your specific interests be it literature, art, architecture, LGBT history or a darker theme based on ghosts, murder and mystery.

As a Blue Badge Guide accredited by the Scottish Tourist Guides Association, I’m qualified to help you explore the entire country and my skills as an expert storyteller will help bring it to life. All of course in a socially distanced and safe way.

I am experienced in working as a tourist guide with both leisure and business groups and individuals of all ages and nationalities. I only guide in English but I am often praised for my clarity and groups, including student groups, who have English as a second language find me easy to understand I see myself as both an ambassador for my city and my country and believe that guiding should be fun!
