Joe was a great guide. He had a really interesting story to tell about the castle and good insights for the highlights to see if we were limited in time. He also recommended a good pub for a meal. We took his advice and he was right. He was entertaining and informative and we got a lot out of the visit because of that.

Glen is a superstar and hilarious! Great guided tour, deep knowledge of Scottish history and facts, and a fun alternative to the official version. I appreciate your service because otherwise we wouldn't have been able to tour the castle that day. So thanks, all!

My tour guide Jen was simply the BEST! She was so knowledgeable, had a strong clear voice, and was full of delightful stories that made the tour very interesting. She brought years of history to life! I felt badly for all the people who weren't on her tour!

Our tour guide, Rory, was the absolute best! He was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Scottish history. But more than that, he is a wonderful storyteller! If you sign up for this tour and happen to be assigned Rory, you are in for a real treat!

Visite très interessante et divertissante menée par la charmante Catherine. Tout se passe à l'extérieur des murs. Il faut donc compter du temps supplémentaire pour visiter les différents musées du château après la visite guidée.

Explore Edinburgh Castle (exterior) with a local English-speaking guide and hear fascinating tales of royalty, sieges, and legendary events in just 45 mins.

See the Great Hall, St. Margaret’s Chapel, the oldest surviving building in Edinburgh, and marvel at Scotland’s Crown Jewels independently after the guided tour.

Stand atop Castle Rock to soak in sweeping views of the city and uncover hidden treasures with your included Edinburgh city audio tour on your own digital app.

Upgrade for a longer 1.5-hour guided tour, an expert Spanish, Italian, French or German guide, an express guided tour or a small-group Royal Mile guided walking tour.
