  Great value for money to use 3 bus services and for 48 hours it was great value. The attractions were all very good , bought separately this has saved us about £50 and we used the bus all day on both days to go to different areas of the city and not just the attractions

  As soon as I got off the plane the bus was waiting and clearly visible. It was a 30 minute transfer to the city. I did prebook the tickets (but please remember to print a paper copy off to exchange with the driver). These do not come as mobile vouchers. The drivers were polite, friendly and helpful. The first driver gave plenty of recommendations and tips about exploring Edinburgh for a "typical" tourist visitor, which was much appreciated. Many thanks!

  My family and I (husband and two daughters ages 9 and 11) really enjoyed our walking tour with Alana. She is lovely to spend time with and was so interesting to talk to. She showed us all the places we requested and told us things about Edinburgh that we certainly wouldn't know if we weren't locals. I highly recommend going on a tour with her!
