Party for the Taste buds! - Our guide Jenny was very accommodating, provided us some good info on the cheeses included in the tour, the (white) wine paired with these options refreshing & light! Made some new friends along the way, tasted a variety of cheeses (Scottish, Irish, Dutch, Swiss, etc) absolute treat for cheese lovers! A win-win! Just one point to note: the meeting point is a little out of the way (from the Royal Mile) but hey, will travel anywhere for good food - cheese! ;)

An afternoon you won't regret - A lovely way to spend an afternoon in a unique part of town you might not think to explore otherwise. The tour began inside of a cheese shop where you really got to see the cheesemongers passion come through. Our guide in particular, Xander, made it very conversational so we got to ask plenty of questions and learn so much about how they select the cheese. The little tidbits you learn along the way are some of the most memorable. The cheeses are unsurprisingly incredible, but made even better as Xander asked everyone for their preferences and made sure to highlight which ones were likely to be your favorite. He even went so far as to buy me a soda since I preferred not to drink the wine. At times we all were chatting so much it felt more like having a day out with friends where we happened to be sampling fantastic cheese. Definitely recommend anyone to go!

Delightful, worthwhile - Xander was our delightful tour guide for the Edinburgh Cheese Crawl. He was delightful - highly knowledgeable, friendly, willing to slow his walking pace to accommodate my bad ankle. Definitely worth the time and money for us. Highly recommend!!
