We tried all three bus tours, used the extended ticket to visit the castle, palace and royal yacht. Excellent value for money. Would 100% recommend. Particularly enjoyed the green tour with a lovely guide that kept us laughing 😆

abbiamo apprezzato, in particolare, l'attenzione alle persone anziane e diversamente abili: assistenti sempre pronti ad accompagarrti su percorsi alternativi.

Absolutely loved Gemma's guided commentary. The routes conveniently overlapped in certain spots making it so easy to switch or reach attractions. The App helped enormously with stop locations and timetables. With a tight timeline and so much to see in a fascinating and historically rich city we feel we covered as much as possibly to experience the wonderful city of Edinburgh. You wouldn't be able to see as much any other way.

We loved the convenience of how often the buses came by the stops so that we could literally "Hop on and off" at the locations we wanted to see more about! The stop for us to pick up the bus was conveniently located close to our hotel and we were able to ride all three bus lines in the city of Edinburgh. We will definitely be using the system again when we head to London.
