Edinburgh's Landscapes Tours with a Local Guide: Private & Personalized
Overview
Welcome to the beating heart of Scotland, where sea meets sky and ancient monuments perch atop rocky crags. Follow one of our local Edinburgh hosts and explore the city’s stunning natural surroundings. From trails up Arthur’s Seat with its beautiful city views, to the windswept coastal paths. Tackle the imposing hillsides, stroll through the quiet glades or simply enjoy a lazy afternoon in one of the city’s parks.
Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
