Best of Edinburgh - Stephen provided us with our favorite experience of Edinburgh! He was open to taking us to places that we wanted to see, and also took us to places we didn't know we needed to see! We enjoyed chatting and laughing with him throughout the tour! His kind, easy manner made this the highlight of our trip! We highly recommend booking with Stephen! We are his Minnesota fan club!

Fun for the Whole Family! - Stephen was an absolutely amazing tour guide! We did the 4 hour driving tour of Edinburgh. We were travelling with kids and not only did he provide car seats for both our daughters, he made the tour fun and exciting for kids and adults alike! The 4 hours was perfect to keep the kids attention while seeing what we wanted to see. He tailored the tour to the main sites, but also took us to a playground and park for a quick romp. He was knowledgeable and answered all the questions we had. 10/10- a great tour!

- Stephen provided a great experience and tour of Edinburgh. We hit the highlights throughout the city. He took us to an overlook where the whole city could be viewed at once. He provided interesting feedback throughout the tour. Stephen picked us up from our cruise ship and returned us promptly to our cruise ship for sail away. Good experience for an overview of the city.

Excellent Tour - Stephen Maloney should be your choice for an Edinburgh tour guide - Stephen Maloney was our tour guide and did an excellent job. He identified our interests, was a knowledgeable guide, altered the itinerary and provided a ‘day to remember’. We strongly recommend Stephen for any tour needs in Edinburgh and the surrounding areas.

If looking for an Edinburgh Tour, Pick Stephen Maloney. - This was an absolutely fabulous day. Stephen Maloney was our tour guide and he made the day very special. He was a safe driver, showed immense flexibility to take us to see some special Outlander tour spots when his schedule allowed, and was friendly. I would highly recommend this tour - and to ask for Stephen.

Wonderful tour!! - Thank you Stephen!! This was such a great experience for our family. We feel thankful and blessed that we found Edinburgh Cab Tours and that Stephen was available to guide our tour. He made arriving in Scotland so simple by picking us up at the airport, giving us the perfect tour of things we were most interested in, and dropping us off at our rental car location. He helped us see way more than we could have ever managed to see on our own and provided us with such helpful information and tips for the rest of our trip. He even had gift bags for us with snacks and water. We will always have very special memories of our first day in Scotland thanks to Stephen. You will not be disappointed if you book this tour!
