knowledgeable guide. good info. on witches and lots of general Edinburgh history. would have been nice if guide was a little easier to find-it was a very small group and at first we thought the guide was just another person waiting for the tour or standing in the square.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Gave my daughter a rune stone reading and was very accurate, left us both shocked by how accurate he was. Told her things about her past he possible couldn't have known. Would 100% recommend this tour.
