We really enjoyed our time with Hugh. He is very warm, friendly, thorough, and extremely knowledgeable. I love that he wore his kilt, which added to the city introduction, and he was quite dashing. There were other visitors who actually stopped him and asked for his photo, which he graciously obliged. Before departing, he asked about our lunch plans, made a wonderful recommendation, and walked with us to the location. He did a wonderful job!
Very knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions - really enjoyed our tour!
My husband and I took the Edinburgh Welcome Tour today and thoroughly enjoyed it. The sites were very interesting and generally beautiful while our guide, Irene, was impressively knowledgeable and very personable. Irene gave us lots of historical, social and architectural information any graciously fielded all our questions. We would highly recommend this tour and Irene as the guide.
