Excellent!
Robert gave us a fantastic tour of Edinburgh Castle. He was very knowledgeable and made it all entertaining. We actually ended up having an issue with transportation to the meeting point and we were incredibly late for our scheduled tour time. They were gracious enough to bump us to the next tour that day, no questions asked. My mom who was traveling with us was in a boot for a stress fracture in her foot and Robert made sure to go at a slow pace so she could keep up. He also helped make suggestions of other spots in the city to check out since we only had a day to explore. We were so grateful for his time and knowledge!
Great tour. Definitely learned so much more about the castle than we would have had we just explored on our own.
My client enjoyed this tour.
