"We spent about 5 hours with Chris visiting Deans Village, Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile and The Palace of Holyrood. He made our day easy by providing transportation from and to Hawes Pier. We highly recommend Chris and would not hesitate to contact him again. "

"We had a fantastic 3 hours with our local guide, Mark. He was incredibly informative, personable and quite witty, making the whole experience both interesting and entertaining.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him and would highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a great local guide. Thank you, Mark, for making our time in Edinburgh so enjoyable!"

"If you want an insight to the charm and warmth of Edinburgh ………. Go for a walk with a story teller. From the first minute to the last Sven was engaging , knowledgable and fun . He is a master story teller and helps you understand this beautiful city . I would highly recommend . "

"Nice tour, Chris was great. Scotland not known for its cuisine per se but it has its character and classic favorites which we were able to sample while learning a bunch about the City. It also has great people and great whiskey!"

"Mark is a funny guide with a wealth of knowledge about the city where he was born and raised. His tour was very interesting, varied, and enjoyable. Mark introduced us to the different sides of Edinburgh, both on and off the beaten path. His tips for sightseeing, bars, and restaurants really enriched the rest of our stay in Edinburgh. "

" From the very first moment we met Mark at our meeting point, we had the feeling that he was genuinely looking forward to showing us around his city. His impressive knowledge of the city’s history – and, even better, all the little stories and anecdotes behind it – brought everything to life. The relaxed and natural way he shared them made the time simply fly by. When we also discovered that we shared a hobby and several other interests, our first impression was confirmed: Mark wasn’t just a knowledgeable guide, but someone who genuinely enjoyed sharing his home with us – its history, its stories and the way people live there today. We had a wonderful time with him and would be delighted to meet him again if we ever find ourselves back in the city. We would absolutely recommend spending time with Mark – it really felt like a friend showing us his city."
