Best Experience exploring Edinburgh
"We met Alec on the Royal Mile for a wonderful day of exploration and information gathering. Alec is a lovely soul, who has a great passion for Edinburgh and Scotland. He is charming, communicative and very easy to be with. We booked a food tasting tour, but experienced so much more. If we return to Edinburgh, we will definitely contact Alec. We highly recommend engaging Alec, if you want a real history of Edinburgh and Scotland "
