• Calton Hill - Often referred to as Monument Hill, this is an excellent vantage point to admire Edinburgh. From this location, you can view Edinburgh Castle, Leith, the Old Town, and the New Town. The Monument is a familiar sight from photos, postcards, or Pinterest, which is why this part of the tour is so appealing. It’s a picturesque spot where the guide will share Edinburgh’s history and highlight all the landmarks along the way.
• Dean Village - A true hidden treasure, Dean Village is a place that might be overlooked when traveling solo. With Hopscotch Travel, all the best sights will be showcased, creating unforgettable memories. Entering Dean Village feels like stepping into another world, with its cobbled streets and charming houses along the Water of Leith. Historically, the village was known for milling water and grains, and many remnants can still be found if you know where to look – and the guides do.
• New Town - Although not so ‘new’, the New Town was constructed in the 1700s to provide the wealthy with a residence away from the city’s crowded streets. Throughout the area, you’ll find classic examples of Georgian townhouses and architecture, and it is now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
• Old Town - The Old Town of Edinburgh is perhaps the most renowned. Here, visitors can see Edinburgh Castle, the cobbled streets of the Royal Mile, and possibly St Giles’ Cathedral. While the Castle is not included in the tour, arrangements can be made if desired. The aim is to ensure the best possible experience in Edinburgh!
• Arthur’s Seat - As the tour progresses through Edinburgh, there will be stunning views of Arthur’s Seat. The guide will also point out the New Scottish Parliament Building and Holyrood Palace – the official residence of King Charles III in Scotland.
• Edinburgh Castle - Be captivated by the magnificent Edinburgh Castle as the personal guide brings its rich history, architectural marvels, and breathtaking views to life.
• Edinburgh Gin Distillery - The day concludes with a highlight: a visit to Edinburgh’s leading Gin Distillery, where a 1-hour Gin Tour & Tasting experience awaits. Guided by an expert, learn about Gin’s historical ties to Edinburgh, the art of Gin creation, and enjoy a tasting experience to end the day.
