The Guide was English really clear to understand. He gave clear instructions about the tour and what was coming up. The story of the castle was great. Raj, explained all about the 7 mile and the castle at the bottom. Best of all he was humorous and tactful. I would recommend this tour to everyone who goes to Edinburgh Castle.

Ben our guide was superb in every way .. informative, knowledgeable and with a great sense of humour. At first I was wondering whether a guided tour might be worth it .. now I think .. it's the only way to go .. I got to notice and observe tour point aspects I would not have picked up by trying to do this on my own

Jen was interesting and an enthusiastic touring guide. Her knowledge of history was extraordinary and added to the richness of our experience. We were so impressed that I recommended your company to another group of tourists and told them to ask for Jen. Thank you for a great day! Ann Martinson & Mary Grimes Illinois USA
