Premium Edinburgh Traditional Food Tour
Overview
Locally owned and operated, this is not your average food tour. We visit exceptional restaurants and other stops serving superior-quality food. Our guides are some of the most experienced in town. We're different because every tour is unique.
We don't visit the same stops every day, we have better relations with the establishments, and we can also cater to unique requests from our guests. We never use chain restaurants or tourist traps, and we can guarantee you will leave our tour full.
We will also highlight all the other top places to dine in town. After all, you need to eat three times a day, so knowing what and where to eat is essential to an enjoyable vacation. As such, our tour is suitable for everyone. We also accommodate most dietary restrictions, except for vegans.
Don't settle for a food tour that uses chain restaurants and tourist traps serving microwaved food, without care for its guides, guests, or restaurants, and that prioritizes drinks over food. Join us instead.
