Beyond the World's End Private Edinburgh Walking Tour

Join a local Edinburgh tour guide for this exploration through 900 years of history in areas that originally lay beyond Edinburgh's city walls...

This two-hour fixed route tour is purposefully designed to take you away from the hotspots of the High Street and castle end of the Royal Mile, and to explore the lower half of this historic thoroughfare - an area outside Edinburgh's original city walls and beyond the point designated 'the World's End'...

Discover an area of the city even locals rarely visit, and explore some of the Old Town lanes and alleys that are easily overlooked.

​The route features highlights from over 900 years of Edinburgh's history, including:

  • the modern Scottish Parliament building
  • the Palace of Holyroodhouse
  • views of Arthur's Seat
  • the Canongate Kirkyard
  • lanes and alleys of the Royal Mile

Your guide is a local resident with twenty years of experience living and working in Edinburgh - go exploring with a knowledgeable and passionate ambassador for the city!

Gareth, your guide, was awarded a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence/Traveller's Choice Award 2017 to 2022...
