About This Event

Travel into Old Town Edinburgh and meet the characters of the city, from the iconic sights of the Royal Mile to the Kirk of Greyfriars. Travel into Old Town Edinburgh and meet the characters of the city, from the iconic sights of the Royal Mile to the Kirk of Greyfriars. A tour of this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a must on your visit to Scotland’s capital. Discover the heart of Scotland’s capital, beyond the reach of tour buses and guidebooks. A beautiful city steeped in awe-inspiring history that has been perfectly preserved in the wynds, closes, courtyards and homes of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Take a journey through time, feel the cobblestones beneath your feet as you explore the lives of Edinburgh residents from generations past – from historical figures like Mary Queen of Scots and Robert Burns, to the everyday folk who for their entire lives never left the city’s walls. With every step along the Royal Mile, echoes of the past surround you — stories of royalty, rebellion, crime and culture brought vividly to life by our masterful Storytellers, and historic landmarks that still stand today.
