Iain - Tour Guide in Edinburgh

I am Scottish, grew up near Glasgow, and have lived in Scotland for most of my life. But I'm also a keen international traveller. I've visited over 50 countries and have lived abroad for over three years. I've always been interested in other countries, their history, society, culture and people. Now it's time to explain to visitors to Edinburgh about my own country, and help them have an enjoyable and interesting stay.

We had a great experience on our tour of Edinburgh with Iain as our guide. He provided a solid background on Scottish history, sharing memorable stories without overwhelming us with too many facts or dates—just enough to bring key moments to life. As we walked through the city, he highlighted fascinating details about both Scottish and Edinburgh history that we wouldn’t have noticed on our own. This was our first day in Edinburgh, and it was time well spent. Iain also gave us helpful suggestions for the rest of our stay, which we really appreciated. Highly recommended!

We got a private tour with Ian, as we were the only one doing the afternoon walk. Ian came across very knowledgeable of Scottish history and the story of Edinburgh. He took us through the various periods of Scottish and English history, while walking us through the various landmark in the city. It was an enjoyable two hour session with Ian!

This was by far the best walking tour I have ever attended. Iain is not only well-prepared but also deeply knowledgeable about Scotland. The tour provides fascinating perspectives on the history of the country and its political landscape. I highly recommend Iain's tour to anyone interested in discovering history, culture, and current affairs in an enjoyable way.
