I am a Tour Guide
Hey there! I'm Andre, your go-to host in Edinburgh, where history and modernity dance together on cobblestone streets. This city's magic lies in its compactness, blending everything you could wish for without feeling overwhelming. Just a short stroll takes you from the medieval allure of the Old Town to the chic vibes of the New Town—a change of scenery that never ceases to amaze me. My heart belongs to Edinburgh's pub culture, where every corner reveals a story, friendly faces, and the warmth of traditional Scottish fare. And let's not forget the diverse landscapes—from the breathtaking views atop Arthur's Seat to the serene waterside dinners in Leith. Diving into the city's dark history and connecting it to the vibrancy of modern Edinburgh is my forte. Join me for an adventure through Edinburgh's past and present, and let's make some unforgettable memories together!

Andre was perfect. My wife is in a wheelchair so we requested an accessible and cobblestone-free tour and Andre went above and beyond meeting our needs. We got to see both the new town and old town, had a great vegetarian lunch, and the ride and route were very smooth. Definitely recommend Andre if you're looking for an accessible tour and great vegetarian food recommendations!
