Art Walking Tour in Georgian Edinburgh

About the Tour

This tour is dedicated to the art of Edinburgh, as there is a general lack of walking tours in the city and I wanted to provide a tour on one side of Edinburgh that is ignored by other tours. You should book this tour as it is very different from anything else you might experience in Edinburgh. The walking tour includes a number of different sites in Edinburgh's 18th / 19th century New Town: 1. Robert Adam's Charlotte Square. 2. The site of one of the few Scottish performances of Fryderyk Chopin. 3. The Scottish novelist, Sir Walter Scott's house (no entry) and the story of his positive and negative life. 4. George Street Meeting Rooms. A Georgian ballroom and a place where many famous authors have spoken. 5. Statue of Allan Ramsay. Writer of opera, poetry and theater champion in Edinburgh. 6. The Sir Walter Scott Monument and the David Livingstone Monument, both examples of Amelia Robertson Hill's sculptural work. An example of female sculpture in Victorian Scotland. 7. The Scottish National Portrait Gallery (no entry). 8. Waverley gate and the history of an 18th / 19th century theater with royal ties. The tour includes my guide fees. Anything else like food, drink, etc. It is not included in the price. I would advise those attending to wear appropriate clothing for the weather and to bring an umbrella.
