I had a chance to attend the Old Town Tour recently. It was a pleasure to see Edinburgh through the eyes of a guide, who can explain the details of the architectural history of the city. I can highly recommend the tour.

This is a really interesting and informative tour of New Town and architecture of the Georgian period. Olga, our tour guide, is an architect herself and has clearly done a lot of research. One of the highlights was access to the locked Queen Street Gardens! We've done architectural tours in a number of cities and this ranks among the top!

A little bit of confusion about where to meet which was not due to cobble tales but the tourist information office. Our young guide Nick ( I think, he is Belgian so spelling may be different!) was brilliant. He is enthusiastic and informative and loves his subject. We walked for 3 hours but it was so enjoyable and we learned so much about the old town of Edinburgh.

This tour was the first thing we did in Scotland and I’m so glad we experienced it first. Our flights had been delayed and Olga worked with us to fit in as much of the tour as time and our flight-weary bodies allowed! We had a much greater appreciation and understanding of all the different architecture and history throughout the rest of our trip. I would highly recommend the tour, especially if you can go at the beginning of your time in Edinburgh.
