Edinburgh
About
Private access lets you walk straight into Edinburgh’s beating heart. Feel the worn stones of the Royal Mile under your shoes as the sound of bagpipes carries through narrow closes. Your licensed guide leads you through layers of Scottish history during this two hour castle walking tour. Step beyond the gates with skip-the-line entry and see treasures once guarded by kings. Light filters through St. Margaret’s Chapel while quiet air settles over its stone walls. At the National War Museum uniforms and medals gleam under glass as echoes of courage linger. From Castle Rock the wind brushes your face and the city spreads before you like a painted canvas. Will you see the same view that inspired...

Royal Mile
The journey begins on cobbled streets alive with music and chatter. Stone façades rise around you as shop windows glow with tartan.

National War Museum of Scotland
Step into echoing halls where medals, weapons, and uniforms tell stories of bravery. The faint scent of polished wood fills the gallery.
25 minutes

St. Margaret's Chapel
Soft light falls through stained glass onto simple stone benches. Silence lingers like a prayer in the castle’s oldest building.
20 minutes
4
Edinburgh Castle
Gaze at the Crown Jewels and feel the weight of steel cannons. Wind whips across Castle Rock as the city spreads out below.
40 minutes
5
Castle Terrace
