Sharing both my home town of Edinburgh and my bonnie wee country of Scotland with visitors and locals is something I’m truly passionate about. As a Blue Badge Guide accredited by the Scottish Tourist Guides Association, I’m qualified to help you explore the entire country and my skills as an expert storyteller will help bring it to life. Walking tours, especially of Edinburgh, are my speciality. I can tell you all about the history and characters of the Old and New Towns. We could visit sites like Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, the National Museum of Scotland or the National Gallery. If you would like something a liitle different I can take you off the beaten track or tailor a walk to your specific interests be it literature, art, architecture, Harry Potter, LGBT history or a darker theme based on ghosts, murder and mystery. I am an experienced tourist guide who has worked with both leisure and business groups of all ages and nationalities. I guide in English only and I am often praised for my clarity and groups, including student groups, who have English as a second language find me easy to understand I see myself as both an ambassador for my city and my country and believe that guiding should be fun!
