Overview

We will begin this Private Edinburgh Tour with a visit to the old city. Here we will see one of the most emblematic places in the city that is the medieval castle that still preserves the structure thousands of years ago. Next, we will enter the neighborhood known for its small streets, where we will see the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

Firstly, meet up with one of our great private tour guides. Your chauffeur will be waiting in the vehicle to take you on this great city tour of Edinburgh!

Then we will see the new city built between the 13th and 19th centuries due to the overpopulation of the old city. We will see its main street, Princes st, and its famous gardens that border between neighborhoods.

Among many other prominent places in both the old and new city, we will see; The Parliament of Scotland, La Magdalen chapel, the alleys of The Royal Mile.

Activity name

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
