Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Queen Street Gardens, 13 Heriot Row, Edinburgh EH3 6HP, UK
This tour passes through the UNESCO World Heritage area of the "New" Town which dates back to 1767! It is the largest Georgian example of town planning anywhere in the world. We will see many of the elegant homes, grand streets and architecture and learn about the people who lived and worked there.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Dean Village, Dean Path, Edinburgh EH8 8BH Scotland
We then dive down below the city and walk along a river bank in what feels like a rural area hidden away below the city. The walk passes by beautiful green gardens where you can listen to the bird life and occasionally see the odd heron catching fish in the stream.
Finally we finish in a hidden village which dates back to the 12th century and is only a stones throw away from the city centre. We learn all about the history of the people living there and the different circumstances the village has been through over the centuries.
Duration: 1 hour
