Overview

You’ll follow one of our friendly hosts around Edinburgh for a spot of sightseeing whilst your ship makes port at Queensferry. We’ll make sure your experience matches your schedule as well as your tastes. Perhaps you’d like to take in a few of the Scottish capital’s famous attractions, like Edinburgh Castle or the Scott Monument, or do you see yourself winding through the twisted cobbled streets of Old Town?

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.
