This tour was fantastic! Great information and conversation.
Did a fantastic job of showing how the old stories and myths wove into the fabric of Scotland's history. Felt like I got two tours in one - myths and legends of the region as well as the history of Scotland/Edinburgh.
Irene was amazing! a very knowledgeable, engaging and attentive guide. Our morning with her was a personal Enlightenment.
