“Robert didn't just exceed our expectations, he smashed
through them with huge amounts of information delivered
through factual anecdotes laced with good humour. Two hours
flew by, and our new appreciation for Edinburgh is only topped
by our respect for Robert.
I defy anyone to remain un-informed by this master-educator.”

Private Tour
“First of all regardless of what I write I will not be able to share how much my family enjoyed this tour. I truly wished I booked more time with Robert, he was the best! My family booked a private tour so our children would have time to focus and interact with Robert. We wanted them to learn about the unique history of Edinburgh and the entire experience was without parallel… Overall, I hung on every word Robert said. I will be contacting him again, he has been the best tour guide we have had in years.” CircleMajik- TripAdvisor review - 2/6/2018(Please note that pre-booking is essential for all our tours)

“I was on a tour with Robert last Saturday.
It was so wonderful because he's such a
fantastic tour guide with such a profound
knowledge of the history. It was a great joy
to listen to the stories about the Old Town.
The visual aids he uses are a perfect
addition to them and as you see the 'then
and now' you get a better idea of what the
Old Town must have been like. Robert is so
friendly and patient and has a good sense
of humour. His enthusiasm is contagious
but never ever boring. I highly recommend
this tour because I enjoyed every minute of
it.”
