Itinerary
1
New Town
10.00 AM - Your day begins in the heart of Edinburgh’s New Town, in a private townhouse owned by a local art collector.
Over fine tea and pastries, surrounded by masterpieces you will enjoy an intimate lecture on Scottish art history, delivered by a respected art historian — a refined introduction to the cultural landscape you’re about to explore.
From there, we will walk to Dundas Street and Stockbridge — the epicentre of Edinburgh’s gallery scene

Dundas Street
11.15 AM - Private Gallery Visits on Dundas Street and Stockbridge
Every gallery visit is scheduled in advance, and you will be welcomed as an expected guest. Current exhibitions will be presented to you personally, and upon request, works from private collections or back catalogues can be arranged for viewing. Thanks to long-standing relationships with gallerists and collectors, you’ll enjoy discreet introductions, meaningful conversations, and privileged access to exceptional art.
Before your visit, I will ask for your collecting interests or specific preferences — whether in Scottish painting, contemporary art, or antiques — and tailor each stop accordingly.

En route, enjoy scenic views of the Firth of Forth and the iconic Forth Bridge — one of Scotland’s engineering marvels — as we pass through the breathtaking countryside.
At the centre, we will dine at the elegant Café Circa, followed by a guided two-hour exploration of fine art, antiques, and rare objects from across Scotland.
From 18th-century furniture to collectible silver and decorative arts — you will have an opportunity to find hidden gems and get something unusual for your collection.

Tailored. Trusted. Truly exceptional.
