33 tours · €4–€114 per person · ★ 4.9
Every Edinburgh walking tour here was picked by hand: we read every listing and kept 33 tours rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €4 per person for an Old Town highlights walk to €114 per group for a private adults only comedy walk. A walking tour of Edinburgh pairs the Old Town's streets with a guide's stories, while castle combinations take you inside the castle walls.
A quick way to choose: a Royal Mile walking tour does not always include castle entry, so check the inclusions. On the castle entry walks, guides cover the outdoor grounds and leave the buildings for you to explore afterwards. The haunted vault walk involves steps and a spiral staircase.
