“Excellent tour of Edinburgh by a knowledgeable, experienced, friendly tour guide. Saw a lot of the city and some neighborhoods we wouldn't otherwise have known to go to, which was nice. Bikes were easy to ride. Most of tour was on paths/roads with no cars or minimal traffic. It was really nice to be picked up by the van (plus the option to finish the tour) at the hotel. Before signing up, we thought maybe 5 hours might be too much, but the time flew by, plus we got a good work-out! The kids (12 and 14yo) really enjoyed themselves, as well.”

“Jane was great! very knowledgeable, pleasant and just as excited about seeing this amazing place (probably for the 100th time) as I was for my first. she was very accommodating and offered as much or as little info as you wanted to get from her and was more than ok with everyone exploring independently. Boss, oir driver, was also great! I wish this advertisement would've stated that the to London required us to go to Heathrow first. we may have made different arrangements to get more time in London or just flown home from Heathrow that day if we had known we were going to Heathrow anyways”
