"Alice was a wonderful treat to spend three hours with touring around Edinburgh! She is a special storyteller with engaging, thought provoking, and enjoyable tales from history! Absolutely loved our time with Alice!"

"We spent a couple of hours with Alice at Edinburgh castle. She had a great smile, a clear voice and told dramatic stories of the history of the castle and its residents. We enjoyed her company and the time spent with her."

"We spent a delightful afternoon with Mark. It was a unique tour of hidden gems, down alleys, on buildings, at entryways etc and regaled us with the tales ( legend and fact ) behind these sites. We were a diverse group of friends. He read us well and tailor made these few hours into a delightful afternoon. "

"Based on my experience With Locals, I have high expectations. Maybe a little unrealistic, but Gains surpassed them. I was so impressed with Gains! His breadth and depth of knowledge, coupled with his understanding of current events as well as literature, TV, and movies, enable him to offer a one of a kind tour. Our three hours with Gains passed quickly, and and we found it to be both educational and stimulating. We freely peppered him with questions, his responses were comprehensive and thought provoking. We would encourage anyone traveling to Edinburgh to book a tour with Gains. You will enrich your time in Edinburgh by doing so. "

"Mark gave our group of six an absolutely fantastic “hidden gems” tour. From reading his profile and reviews from previous customers, I had high expectations and was not disappointed. His knowledge of local and regional history is very evident when he is telling stories while pointing out pertinent locations on the walking tour. He has a great sense of humor with a little bit of entertaining self deprecation that puts you at ease. He’s able to quickly pivot and change topics in response to questions or a new location. He also provided great recommendations for additional things to do and see, including restaurants and pubs. At the end of our tour, he went above and beyond to help us plan the rest of our day, including calling up and making reservations for us at a local restaurant. I can’t recommend him highly enough! "

"Gains was an incredible tour guide. He was extremely knowledgeable of the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle. He made it so interesting and engaging and could answer all of our million questions about Scottish history with ease. We could not recommend him enough!"

"What a fabulous day. Mark was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable, kind and humorous. We learned so much about Edinburgh and Scotland that we wouldn't have by simply researching. Personal stories of growing up in this history rich city/country added a personal touch. He has been so helpful to us even prior to coming to Scotland. We can't wait to go on the Food Tour with him in a week. Highly recommend Mark for you tour whichever one you pick. 10 out of 10."

"Alice was kind and super knowledgeable about all things Edinburgh. We enjoyed this kickstart tour to get us familiarized with the city at the start of our trip! Thank you Alice!!"

"We came to Scotland with very little knowledge of Edinburgh and the country other than what you get from TV ☺️. Our tour with Alice was enlightening and exactly what we needed as we started our two week adventure here. Her time with us was filled with local stories, educational tid bits and local recommendations. Alice was fun and easy to chat with as we navigated the busy streets of the Royal Mile and Victoria Street. At the end of the tour we were ready to head to a pub for lunch and Alice helped us find the perfect spot, out of the busy tourist area, which was exactly what we were hoping for!"

"Our tour of the Edinburgh Castle was our second with Alice and once again she was brilliant. She makes history come alive with stories that entertain and inspire!"
