Overview
The New Town and Dean Village walking tour is the perfect way to see the beautiful expansion of Edinburgh during its heyday. You will learn about the fascinating relationship between New Town design and the Scottish Enlightenment that transformed Edinburgh into the "Athens of the North," and you will fall in love with the beautiful Charlotte Square, home to the Prime Minister's official residence, Bute House. After New Town, we will head to the magical deep valley: Dean Village, a true time capsule in the form of a beautiful neighborhood on the banks of the Water of Leith River.
During our walking tour of New Town and Dean Village, our guides will infect you with their passion for this city and its streets. Visiting St. Andrews Square, with its beautiful buildings such as Dundas House, we will see the imposing façade of the Royal Scottish Academy, learn why Edinburgh pays special tribute to George IV, and learn about the peculiar history of a community like Well Court.
- This tour is not recommended for people with reduced mobility. We will have to overcome steep slopes and stairs.
