Edinburgh Full Royal Mile Tour from Palace to Palace

This is a rare opportunity to take a walk from the current Edinburgh Royal residence to the former Edinburgh Royal residence. You will traverse from the historic Canongate Burgh (the cross) into the historic Edinburgh (the sword), the Sword and Cross combined at last. Your journey will be with fellow travelers looking to learn about Scotland’s ancient capital in an entertaining and humorous way with an experienced public speaker, who as well as being an Edinburgh boy born and bred, is also one of the leading Scottish comedians in the evenings.

Edinburgh’s current royal home, tales of Mary Queen of Scots, the former Abbey here and area of sanctuary.

The current Scottish Parliament. Here we will discuss governance, the Union with England. Arthurs Seat in the background.

Take in the sights of the former Tolbooth, the beautiful Canongate church and graveyard, and a filming location for a Scottish television show.

The site of the former entrance to Edinburgh. The dividing line between the two historic burghs.

One of the oldest buildings in Old Edinburgh. Hear about the great/infamous Protestant reformer. Also see an old well that used to satisfy the thirst of medieval Edinburghers.

The site of two “invisible” bridges, a piece of genius in dealing with a growing population and the large chasm in Edinburgh.

Site of Scotland’s former government building, now our Supreme Court. Hear about Scots Law and the fight to retain some independence after the Union.

The home of world Presbyterianism. A magnificent 900 year old history contained within its walls. Hear tales of change, important milestones and a shopkeeper who changed the history of Britain.

Tales of the Royal Mile, Scottish Enlightenment, and an Edinburgh man who lived a secret double life.

Comparison of the Old Town and New Town. Show you the layout of old Edinburgh and talk of the squalid conditions people lived in, in one of the busiest cities in Europe.

Final stop at the esplanade, see our magnificent castle that sits proudly on top of castle rock. We have been occupying it for 3000 years and it is Edinburgh’s origin story.
