Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Much enjoyed our recent tour with Rowan. Not only was he knowledgable about his city and it’s architecture he had a good sense of humour which is always a good sign.
Not only did he take us to the more obvious places a visitor would enjoy seeing but also took us to areas off the beaten track. We much enjoyed our visit to Dr Neil’s garden located in the village of Duddingston, a botanical delight with lovely views of the adjacent loch. Open to all with no entry fee it is a delight with the added advantage it is next to the lovely 12c Duddingston Kirk.
Thanks Rowan for a memorable trip.

Rowan was awesome! Showed up on time, was super-friendly, genuine, knowledgeable, and funny, and really gave us a sense of the city. I felt like he took us to places we wouldn’t have otherwise known about, and like I’m a lot more comfortable navigating on my own after being with him!

Specifically, he knew a lot about architecture and environmental topics, which my wife and I enjoyed very much since we’re into both those things.

I’ve been on tours before that seemed to drag, and this was the exact opposite of that. The time flew along and I wanted to go for another 4 hours!

It was a pleasure guys. I think I have Sarah's gloves which were left in the car. Email me if that's the case and I'll send them back to you. All the best, R

We just came back from an amazing morning with Andy seeing and hearing about all the beautiful sights in Edinburgh. Being in the mini was a lot of fun and enabled us to get to areas we wouldn’t have been able to see otherwise. Andy is extremely knowledgeable, being born and raised here. Super friendly, can’t wait to come back and try his other tours !!

This was a wonderful tour around more "far reaching" sites than I wanted to walk. Rowan did a great job sharing history, architecture, and stories about his lovely city. I would highly recommend this to anyone who would like to find some of Edinburgh's more hidden areas that aren't on the regular city site seeing busses. It is wonderful that Rowan and his brother will personalize your tour for your needs. I will be using Mini Mack Tours again when I return to Edinburgh in 6 months to see more of this beautiful city.

We spent the last day of 2019 with the lads (brothers Andy & Rowan) of Mini Mack Tours beep beep beeping around Edinburgh. It was a brilliant day and exceptional way to see the sights, with local knowledge and far from feeling touristy. Thanks boys!

Hello Henry. Sorry we are slow to respond. It was a pleasure and myself and Rowan are lucky to do something that we both love showing you lovely people around our pretty city! Come back for our Highlands tour next time. Andy

You couldn't ask for a more fun and informative way to be introduced to Edinburgh! These boys know their stuff and they will entertain you from beginning to end with their banter and tips on what to do and where to go in their beloved city. Although we only spent two hours with these Scots, we benefitted from their insight and advice for the duration of our stay. This is by far the best tour company we've encountered in the U.K. Thank you, boys! You made our stay so very enjoyable and memorable.

If you want to learn the real history of Edinburgh this is the tour for you. You will visit different areas of the city from Old Town to New Town to the coast. Along the way you will learn what life has been like over the last 500 years. No embellishments of facts like larger tour companies offer for entertainment. Rowan was my guide. Edinburgh is his home since birth. He is personable, genuine and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend Mini Mack Tours. I look forward to returning to Scotland and taking their Highlands Tour.

We had a great time on this tour. We have taken many tours over the years, from small private ones to large ones with high end groups. This was as good as any we’ve been on and better than most. Andy is very knowledgeable about Edinburgh and has a very personable and entertaining delivery. I had some reservations about the comfort of a small mini, but my wife and I were very comfortable and Andy was able to navigate some of the smaller roads to get us to quaint and interesting areas that a larger car wouldn’t be able to get to. Highly recommend!

Andy and Rowan are so down-to-earth it is like having a good friend show you around the city. They show you the most interesting spots, tell you the best restaurants, and genuinely care about you having a great time. They are intimately familiar with the city and Scotland in general. This was by far the best thing we did in Edinburgh!

We had perfect weather, blue sky and sun. This tour was a good option for me and my 2 colleagues. If you are tall or large you will feel crammed in the back. We were short so we were ok. Got to see some sights we wouldn't have if just walking around. Our guide gave good info and had a fun personality. We had a fun time and got good pics.
