OUR GUIDES

WALKING TOURS IN EDINBURGH

ABOUT US

LOCAL GUIDES | LOCAL EXPERIENCES

Hi we’re Liv and Jenny, we founded this small business in 2017, because we understand how important it is to meet and spend time with a local when you visit a new place. We initially took the tours ourself, before expanding into a group of guides, each who bring their own spin to the tours.

In each place, all of our guides are guides because they are passionate about the city and they want to share its beauty with you! Our guides come from all walks of life, and all have their own unique experiences of their hometown, which is what makes every tour unique. We hope to see you on one of our tours soon.

We don’t just offer your standard history tours, we have unique experiences too! You can book any day from now until the end of 2026.

TANJA

Hi, welcome to Edinburgh! I am proud to call this outstanding city home and passionate about helping visitors from around the world to discover hidden places, ancient history and the modern Scotland. My idea of a perfect town excursion is joining facts and entertainment by giving people a clear sense of the big picture and why it looks like that and then bring it to life with telling details and curious stories. Can’t wait to take you on tour!
