La città di Edimburgo: angoli nascosti - Con Giada ci siamo divertiti molto e abbiamo scoperto tante cose nuove di Edimburgo. È stata bravissima a raccontarci la storia e a darci suggerimenti per il pranzo (cibi tipici) e shopping. I suggerimenti ci hanno permesso di completare al meglio il nostro itinerario del pomeriggio.
Consiglio la Passeggiata storica di tre ore per avere un'infarinatura su Scozia e Edimburgo.

Edinburgh City Tour - Beautiful tour gave us a complete idea of the city. Our guide Claudio Averna was excellent, competent and made us spend a very very pleasant three hours. A mix of history, legends, traditions and superstitions. Empathetic and friendly Claudio is certainly a fantastic guide!!! Tonight our Claudio will accompany us to discover dark Edinburgh... stories of ghosts and witches. Thanks Claudio

Scotland tour....a landmark in Edinburgh!!! - Interesting and fun tour!!! Our guide Claudio Averna was able to involve the group during the duration of the tour, telling us anecdotes and history that we would never have known otherwise!!! Choosing Scotland Tour for our excursions to Edinburgh was the ideal choice to make the most of the experience of this magnificent trip!! Book your excursions with them and you won't regret it!! They are the only ones in Edinburgh to have Italian guides!! Great!!! Keep up the good work and we'll see you again on our next trip to Scotland!! Warm greetings from Stefania and Antonello (Puglia/Taranto).

Never again 😊 - Awful experience.
I booked a ghost in advance and 2 hrs before the tour they sent me a WhatsApp (very unprofessional) saying that the tour was cancelled because they didn't reach the minimum number.
Then they advise another tour the day after which is been cancelled again the same day of the tour. When I went to their office to have an explanation the staff at the front desk did welcome me in a very unpleasant way, not offering any solutions.
Thanks Sara Nieves and Echeday for the awful experience 😊
