Brian is great. Clearly spent some time researching and scheduling our tour. His demeanor is easy and approachable

My wife and I went on a "foodie" tour of Edinburgh with Gee Davidson. Gee took us to some great places and we sampled some great food and drink. In addition Gee shared a great deal of Edinburgh's sites in both the old town and the "new town", broken up nicely by stopping periodically to eat at different places. Gee was a great conversationalist and we enjoyed his company. I would certainly recommend this tour.

Had a wonderful time. We recommend this tour. It was customized on the spot for our taste and what we like. Went to places we would not have known about.

Gee was a great tour guide. Tour was very informative and a great activity to do upon arrival in Edinburgh. Since the tour is private, Gee was able to customize based on the various interests of the group. Over food and drinks, he helped us map out the rest of our stay in Edinburgh. Would highly recommend
