Alisdair was a mine of really interesting information about Edinburgh and we learned so much more than if we'd walked around the town on our own. He made sure we were all kept safely together and answered all the questions the group had for him. This was a great way to spend a couple of hours and primed us well for the rest of our stay.

G's passion for Edinburgh and all things Scottish were infectious. He was extremely informative, animated and very interesting. We really enjoyed the tour and all he had to offer - it was freezing cold and the weather was atrocious but we enjoyed it enormously.

We had such fun on this Tour - David really brought the magic of the books to life and kept the tour interactive throughout - asking loads of questions and getting us involved. I would highly recommend this tour with David

Let me just start by saying it was incredibly cold! But that really just made the experience a bit more authentic. We were hosted by Alasdare (hope I spelt that correctly) who is an Edinburgh local was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. We started on the Royal Mile and ended behind the castle with the best views. Highly recommended tour. It also allows you to pay your donation in advance so no embarrassing exchange of cash at the end - which is really smart I think.

G was an amazing guide. Our group was fairly large but you could hear him clearly. G shared gruesome historical facts in a respectful way, and kept it lighthearted with a few jokes in between. Thank you G!

Xander was amazing and very knowledgable. We had a great time on the tour and would highly recommend! He told us some fascinating facts about JK Rowling and where she got her inspiration for the books and some fun facts about the movies. We loved being sorted into houses and being quizzed as we walked around Edinburgh!

Brian was an excellent Tour guide, would recommend highly. Very knowledgeable, very personable and approachable. Thank you.

Monique was an amazing tour guide!!!! She was very knowledgeable, considerate of the entire group, and gave great suggestions on where to go and eat around Edinburgh. I gained a lot of Harry Potter knowledge and had so much fun. An amazing tour for every Harry Potter fan!! I loved it.

Our guide G was very energetic and excited about leading our tour and downloading all his information! Thanks for making our trip to Edinburgh great!

We had the most informative and fun tour with the wonderful tour guide ‘G’. This being our 6th tour having undertaken an “introductory walk “ at many of the big cities of the world, we expected and were granted the same level of organised, professional and knowledgeable experience. G posses a great knowledge and imparts it with a flair that kept up entertained and engaged for the full experience. His love for Edinburgh was contagious and he provided lots of local insight and recommendations.

Such a great and informative tour of the alternate Edinburgh. Our guide, Niamh, was funny lovely and made a really memorable experience

Was an amazing, great history and local info. Alasdair was amazing, best tour guide to date. He took us to see such beautiful scenes and made the whole tour very fun and interesting .

You won’t want to miss this 2-hour walking tour if you want to learn about Edinburgh’s dark past. The guide, Alasdair, is really knowledgeable about Edinburgh’s history and brings it to life at each stop along the way with his amazing storytelling ability.

Excellent tour, Alasdair was friendly and made the tour very enjoyable, was very knowledgeable about the old characters of Edinburgh

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour, our guide Joe was brilliant- humorous and entertaining. He gave lots of fun & interesting facts, told stories of what times were like in the old town and how the new town came about. Also gave recommendations of where to eat, drink & visit in Edinburgh. Highly recommend this tour & Joe!
