Private Full-Day Edinburgh & Highlands Tour from South Queensferry

A bespoke private touring day in a luxury minivan — Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, and beyond — crafted around your own pace and passions. Pure Scotland, no compromises.

What to expect

Your guide collects you directly at the gangway and whisks you into Edinburgh, where the cobbled Royal Mile leads to the dramatic ramparts of Edinburgh Castle. The afternoon can pivot to Holyrood Palace, a whisky tasting on the Canongate, or a scenic push north toward Stirling — whatever your group desires. Expect insider access, unhurried stops, and commentary steeped in Scottish history. The guide ensures you are back pierside well before all-aboard.
