I am a Tour Guide
Hey there! I'm Andre, your go-to host in Edinburgh, where history and modernity dance together on cobblestone streets. This city's magic lies in its compactness, blending everything you could wish for without feeling overwhelming. Just a short stroll takes you from the medieval allure of the Old Town to the chic vibes of the New Town—a change of scenery that never ceases to amaze me. My heart belongs to Edinburgh's pub culture, where every corner reveals a story, friendly faces, and the warmth of traditional Scottish fare. And let's not forget the diverse landscapes—from the breathtaking views atop Arthur's Seat to the serene waterside dinners in Leith. Diving into the city's dark history and connecting it to the vibrancy of modern Edinburgh is my forte. Join me for an adventure through Edinburgh's past and present, and let's make some unforgettable memories together!
Our morning with Andre exceeded our expectations. We booked our tour of Edinburgh at the very last minute but Andre reached out to us and put together the most perfect introduction to this amazing city. He showed us several sites we never would have found or understood without him ,and he made many recommendations which we appreciated and used on our own. He was always mindful of our needs, ( coffee, rest breaks etc. ) and made himself available for questions even after we parted. I feel as if we have made a friend in Edinburgh and would not hesitate to request him again. Best decision we ever made! Thank you, Andre!

Andre was wonderful! We booked this tour at the last minute because another company fell through and right from the beginning Andre was pro active in contacting us and was in constant communication. He was very kind and considerate of our challenges and very attentive to our needs. He was very articulate and engaging in his narrative. He shared the history in a way that was interesting and fun to follow, with many interesting side notes. He shared a number of things not outlined on the tour and did not leave us until he had more than fulfilled every need and desire for the tour. Thank you Andre for a most delightful day. I highly recommend Andre!

Andre was wonderful. His passion for all things Edinburgh and appreciation for the natural beauty within and around the city made for a phenomenal tour. From the views of the Palace, to the base views of the surrounding hills to the walk up the Royal Mile each step was filled with great stories both common and unique.
