Jill was my private tour guide in Edinburgh at the end of September. I enjoyed the couple of hours city walk tour with her. I appreciate her insights into the city’s history, culture and rich information about the historic places and museums. It’s a fun and unforgettable experience.

Jill was my private tour guide. I enjoyed those couple hours tour in Edinburgh. Although my time was limited, she was able to take me to the most highlights, historical places with her detailed introduction and explanation. In addition she contacted me ahead of my appointment letting me know what she would wear and the meeting point. After my tour, she sent me email to provide more information about my future trip in Edinburgh. I appreciate your efforts to make my trip smooth and enjoyable. Thank you.
