Overview

Wrap up warm as you join one of our local hosts to explore the enchanted winter wonderland which Edinburgh transforms into during Christmas time. You’ll discover the historic cobbled streets of Old Town draped in twinkling lights, the magical Scottish Christmas markets and Christmas trees fit to dazzle Santa Claus himself. Indulge in festive foods and follow the light trail at the Royal Botanic Garden!

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.
