Welcome to Edinburgh - Capital city of Scotland with a history of over 1,000 years.

The legendary home of Scottish kings, queens, and militaries, as well as any number of rogues, villains, and vagabonds, the streets themselves practically beg to have their stories told.

Join Natalie, a 5-Star reviewed guide, as she takes you on a route less travelled and regails you with just a handful of these tales, and shows how they are affecting life and culture to this day.

Tales From The Old Town is suitable for all, however some stories may be uncomfortabe for some.

This tour has been crafted to ensure people get the most value for their money. While we will be visiting popular places within the city, we will be taking less popular routes. This will help to avoid crowds and other tour groups, making for a more pleasurable experience.
