A private Edinburgh food and drink tour covering West End, New Town, and Old Town, with hotel pickup, paired drinks, and local stories.

“The tour was a bit hard to find the startpoint of. Was unclear that it started inside the hotell in the lobby bar. And the information on viator of what was included said us nothing. But this was a good tour. We could not have asked for more. All the things that goes with scotland was served but scottish eggs. The guide, Anastasia, was a well of knowledge and did a good job entertaining us with short stories and fun facts under the walk and interesting information about the foods and drinks.”

The included shots we had at each bar were sweet but easy enough for my wife to handle(she doesn’t drink really). Danielle our tour guide was amazing. We were celebrating our honeymoon on this trip, and our guide kept it a secret as we wished. Bar hopping was a lot of fun. Our group was awesome. We will be recommending it to those that visit. Thanks for a great time again!”

Noel was just an amazing, knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating guide who made this fantastic tour all the more enjoyable. His planned itinerary was perfect, packing a lot in without us every feeling like it was too rushed or overwhelming. Having the private tour also allowed us to stop a few places of our own preference. Starting with the initial booking the communication was helpful and friendly, from knowing what to pack to where to make reservations for dinners. During the trip, Noel had fun tales to tell, great music to play, and much information to share about…”
