Overview

Embark on the Tour of Edinburgh Castle to uncover the secrets of Scotland’s most iconic fortress. The experience begins at our meeting point located at 190 High Street, in the heart of the famous Royal Mile, where your expert guide will introduce you to the city’s historical context before ascending toward the castle gates. Once inside the fortified complex, you will journey through its most significant landmarks, including the Royal Palace, the Crown Jewels (the Honours of Scotland), and the legendary Stone of Destiny.

During approximately two hours of historical immersion, you will hear tales of legendary sieges and life in military prisons, alongside a visit to St. Margaret’s Chapel, the oldest standing building in Edinburgh. The tour also covers the history of the famous One O'Clock Gun, which continues to mark time today. This guided visit allows you to understand the strategic importance of this volcanic stronghold far more deeply than a solo visit. At the end, you will have the freedom to continue exploring at your own pace, taking in panoramic views of the city. The price includes entry management for a smooth experience.
