Private Walk: Country in the City
By Edinburgh Walks
Edinburgh Walks offer unique small group private guided walks through parts of this UNESCO World Heritage city of Edinburgh. Your guide was born in Edinburgh, has lived all his life in the city and has an intimate knowledge of the place. With local knowledge to the fore, you can customise your tour to your own requirements. You are in charge and this walk in particular is away from the main tourist routes. See a different side to the city.
Discover the real Edinburgh in a friendly, relaxed and informative way. You will experience breathtaking views of Edinburgh and learn about the history of the surrounding area. Each of the walks around Edinburgh will take you to places of interest and beauty that tour buses cannot reach, allowing plenty of opportunities to stop, shop, rest and take photographs.

A brilliant day out guided by Gerry who was highly informative and great company. Saw an area of Edinburgh which was relatively unknown to me and it has whet my appetite for a return visit during a time when the City is fully open. Well recommended to all walkers!

Hi M,
Thank you very much for your review. It was great to meet you and I thoroughly enjoyed our day out walking. Even with a few Covid-19 restrictions we got round to see everything you wanted - and more. My favourite was the villages along the Water of Leith.
And your knowledge of parts of Greece you have visited have inspired to get out travelling again soon.
Hopefully we can get out again when you are next in town.
