Overview

Oh, bonny Scotland. You’ll spend a day in Edinburgh with one of our friendly local hosts and visit sites like Edinburgh Castle and Scott Monument before taking a turn off the beaten path to some less-touristy spots. Take in the view from Calton Hill, discover Old Town together or explore Edinburgh Food Market. Enjoy making this historic city your own, with bonny memories and plenty of scotch, ye ken?

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.
