Experience the best of
Scotland with Withlocals

"We had a fantastic food tour with Mark. I loved that each tasting was truly Scottish and we got the history as to why these foods came to be popular in Scotland and who they served. I wasn’t expecting all of the historical tidbits we got along the way (not all food based, which was an awesome add-on). Mark is easy to spend three hours with and if you are thinking of adding a food tour to your stay while in Scotland, we would recommend this one with Mark!"

"Mark took us on a super informative and entertaining Highlights and Hidden Gems tour. Highly recommend! "

"Visited different food and drink outlets in Edinburgh and tried things we wouldn’t normally consider. As such it was a good selection. Mark is an experienced and knowledgeable guide, and we really enjoyed our three hours with him. I really recommend this tour. "

"We had a wonderful day learning about Edinburgh from Monica! She completely customized the tour based on our interests and the other activities we had planned. We loved learning all the history and seeing so much of the city with her. "

"We had such a great time with Mark - engaging conversation, learning more about Ediburgh and of course the food! (We actually returned to a couple of the places he introduced us to during our stay. It was that delicious!) Thank you Mark for a fantastic and memorable time!"

"Once you understand how the city came to be and developed, it is way easier to get around and then focus, during your stay, on what you are more interested in. The tour with Chris was perfect. Geology, Geography, Architecture, Urban Planning, History, Socio-Economy: All was covered, not in depth of course but enough to understand Edinburgh. Then, it was up to us to keep walking in this fantastic city and get to know it more, which we did. If you are OK with walking, I highly recommend this tour. We even became more familiar with all the Jameses:) Dynasties should certainly pick more names:) "

"As first-time visitors, this tour was a fantastic introduction to Edinburgh. Chris was wonderful and really helped us get our bearings."

"Loved Chris. Really brought the area to life. Very knowledgeable and helpful. The next day we had a great day on our own due to his suggestions . Loved all his stories "

"We had a wonderful walk with Laura yesterday afternoon. It is my first time in Scotland and we are only here for a couple of days, so we wanted to make the most out of our short stay. Laura was very pleasant and a great storyteller. She showed us the popular sites but also her favorite hidden gems. Her pride as a native Scot shines through as she tells her stories about her beautiful city’s fascinating history. She also shared tips for her favorite restaurants, shops, and pubs. Don’t hesitate to book a tour with Laura. You’ll be so happy you did!"

"Firstly, communicating with Monica was a breeze. She was prompt and direct. She was timely; met us at the pick up point exactly on time. Her tour was wonderful. She took us through nooks and crannies that we would never have uncovered ourselves. The city through her eyes was lovely. A memorable and fond experience. 10 +++ "
