Hello, I'm Doug, your local host in Edinburgh. I love this city for its fascinating history, museums, galleries, open spaces, and sports scene. As a cinema enthusiast, I can recommend the best theaters and give great insights into the Edinburgh International Film Festival. I also have experience working with the Edinburgh Fringe performance venues and can provide insider tips on the best shows to catch. I enjoy walking, reading, and visiting the city's botanic garden in my free time. I look forward to welcoming you to Edinburgh and sharing my love of this amazing city with you.

The Whiskey Tour with Doug was great. A very likeable and approachable guide with a lot of knowledge and pleasure in his work. He showed us various pups and explained a lot about different sights along the way. He customised the whisky tasting to our needs and we learnt a lot. Thank you Doug, it was a great pleasure to wander through Edinburgh's Pup with you.

Doug Scott was awesome! He truly set the stage for our stay in Edinburgh. We did a 6 hour walking tour and his knowledge of the history of the city was amazing. We learned things you just cannot get from randomly walking around on your own. Ask for Doug when booking your tour! He's fantastic!

Doug’s knowledge and the atmosphere at each pub. Great whiskey and hospitality. We shared a lot of stories and experiences. We even visited a graveyard monument dedicated to Scottish soldiers who served in the American Civil War.

Doug was an excellent guide. He met us at the dock in South Queensferry as we got off the ship. He had an entire itinerary ready for us that was based on our must sees. He was extremely personable and knowledgeable. He and wife had long discussions on the history of the Monarchy. I recommend this to anyone wanting a more personal experience.
