Experience Food tours in the best of
Edinburgh 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!"

"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 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!"

"This is was our second tour with Mark and it was another 10 out of 10. Last week we took in the sights and history of Edinburgh, this week four of us took in the Tastes of Edinburgh. Mark has a way of bringing history alive. He is passionate about his home town and country. We learned so much about true Scottish foods, their origins and why they came to be. There was a lot of food, great variety, and the pace was good. We enjoyed ourselves very much. These tours will be some of our best memories of our Scotland vacation. "

"Mark was absolutely a delight from minute 1! The 3 of us gals were laughing and enjoying his company immediately! Mark took us on a food tour of Edinburgh history. He is an amazing historian of food as well as Scotland (which 2 of us being from U.S. didn’t know). He wove stories into each stop and along the walk. Would highly recommend Mark for anyone wanting to know about Scottish food history and enjoying a bit of humor. "

"Mark is super knowledgeable and passionate about food and history. He personalizes each tour based on the interests/needs of members. It was a great way to spend our first afternoon in Edinburgh: eating good food and learning about Scottish history and culture with an engaging host. "

"We had a nice time with Mark! He showed us around nice bars and explained about history of whiskey, production and so on - he also shared a lot of knowledge about Edinburgh and it’s history too… 👌🏼"

"We just completed a food tour of Edinburgh with Mark, and it was outstanding. He brought unique local insight and a deep knowledge of the city’s food and history that really elevated the experience. Mark has a warm, engaging personality, and you could genuinely tell it mattered to him that we enjoyed ourselves. His passion for what he does came through the entire time. Highly recommend touring with him!"

"Our food tour with Mark was even more than what we anticipated. Mark was knowledgeable about all things Edinburgh but not limited to food! He shared his historical knowledge of his home city and of the UK. Mark was extremely pleasant, punctual and definitely a people person. Highly recommend booking a tour with him! "

"Michelle was the perfect guide for our group of 3 sisters touring Edinburgh. She is very knowledgeable about the area and local legendary lore. We had a great time....a lot of laughs, some really good local food and got our steps in for the day at the same time."
