Knowledgable guide and very good food - Skye was very knowledgable about the entirety of Edinburgh and was very passionate. The pace of the tour was perfect, even with some minor mobility issues present in my family. Both the variety and quality of the food introduced were also of very high standard. We really enjoyed the tour and would recommend Skye to any foodie coming to Edinburgh for a visit!

Amazing Localized Tour of Great Food and Drink! - Really neat behind the scenes tour with a true foodie, Skye. Great banter about food and whiskey. Small local venues off the beaten tourist path. Small group of 8-10 makes all the difference! Skye makes the day. Hugely recommended!

Amazing Edinburgh food tour! - Thank you Nichola for such a fantastic day! We covered every inch of Edinburgh, and she gave us so much amazing history, not just of Edinburgh but of Scotland. We ate and drank far too much, but you couldn’t stop because everything was delicious! It was a perfect taste of Scotland! Definitely a must try!
