What a fun way to see and learn about Edinburgh! Daniel was hilarious and great at keeping everyone laughing while also teaching us the history of Edinburgh. It was a great introduction to the city and Brahan (Daniel's sweet dog) was an added bonus to the tour. I highly recommend booking this tour! You won't regret it!
