Our tour started being picked up right off the dock. We had an informative drive into Edinburgh and then off to wander the miracle mile. Richard was enthusiastic and had a wealth of knowledge on Edinburg history. He also regaled us in stories of the more turbulent and dark stories of the cities history at our request. A stroll through the cemetery was a favorite. Backstreets and Alleys cobblestones and stairs we traversed the old city and Richard answered our many questions. After a deli ou lunch in the city we were off to Hopetoun house. It’s actually a palace in my opinion but nevertheless it is an awe inspiring structure built in 1699. We toured the house and spoke to the knowledgeable staff and learned a great deal about the home and the family. We were then returned to the dock and said our good byes. You can’t go wrong with Richard on this tour. Highly recommend this tour.

Maria was a great guide, the best we’ve had in Italy. She showed us what we wanted, with a few surprises that were well received. We saw and learned so much more than a traditional tourist tour. Maria was very caring, thoughtful, and vested in providing the best experience. She knows how to navigate Venice very well. Highly recommend this tour with Marie.

This was exactly what I was looking for in a tour and after sharing a bit of information with Becky, she currated the perfect tour for us. I feel like I have a new friend in London.
