Edinburgh Tours & Excursions

Robby did a brilliant job of entertaining us and making the tour fun. Even though we’re not HP super fans, we thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned a lot. The pace was good and very walkable, even after touring the city all morning. It takes place amidst very popular city sites, so we were able to easily pop into the tour and finish on the Royal Mile with lots more to see around us. So fun!

Great trip. Brandon (the guide) has a great sense of humor! Great guide!

We loved our tour guide Paul!! So outgoing, friendly and competent!!! Because of him we learned a lot about the history of the city, the monuments and the interesting fact about the writing and the Harry Potter spots in the city!!! Appreciate it and higly recommend!!!

Great trip with awesome commentary. Highly recommend if you are new to Scotland and want to see as much as possible. Don’t rely on the places you stop to get food as there are very limited options and some stops there was not enough time to be able to line up, order and eat in the short time frame you were given, in particular the ‘dinner time’ stop.

One of the best experiences we've had on our first trip to Scotland, recommended! We will be back! This tour exceeded all our expectations, being able to take in so many wonderful sights in a packed day was an unforgettable experience, the stops and also the sights on the coach were breathtaking, Loch Ness, Urquhart Castle, and Glencoe are places everyone should visit and soak in if they can. The tour was wonderfully paced and the tour guide David, a genuine kilted Scotsman was friendly, welcoming, and assuring throughout the whole day and he made the whole tour that much more special. He wanted to make sure everyone had the best experience on the day and was very informative with the historical knowledge he shared with us all on the coach on the way to the various stops. Priceless guide and I hope we visit again and tour with him again. One thing to note for those who can suffer vehicle sickness, the coach is very big, and due to how it can bounce around on some of the roads.

Chris P was an amazing driver. He knows all about his country and history. His way to speak it is a lot of fun. This guy has a lot of humor. Be aware that the trip is rather long (500 km) but the good thing is you will see a great variation of the highland. Enjoy

It was a great day. Well planned too. We had plenty of time at each stop. Lizzie , our guide, was very informative on Scottish history and plenty of stories too. Wonderful day

Paul was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable and funny! We are very happy with the tour.

It’s amazing tour Steve was great, he is funny and also he’s a good driver, he told great stories during the trip and played music a long the way, he’s makes the tour very entertaining and not boaring. The scenery was spectacular even though the weather was cloudy. It’s perfect tour to see Scotland nature

Loved the tour. Our guide, Paul, was so helpful and made sure everybody enjoyed the tour. I really liked that we learned about Harry Potter world inspirations and also got to learn the history and fun facts about Edinburgh. Would definately recommend this tour and Paul the guide!

Amazing tour. We only had two days in town and were so happy to spend one of them on this. From the begining it was calm and welcoming, with extremely knowledgable and authentic staff. It never felt "touristy", due to our small group of 8 people and our amazing guide Graham , who was so great. He told us so much about the history, geology, culture, arts, and played well selected music along the route. Perfectly timed stops and lengths of driving in between, so it never felt rushed or boring. 9 hours went by quickly, but was genereally a great length. Would 100% go for a Rabbies tour again, could not recommend enough!

Great experience. Really knowledgeable and interesting guide. Couldn’t believe how much we learned and saw in the 12 hours. The rest stops are a bit limited food wise, so if you have any allergies or special dietary requirements definitely stock up before hand. If you don’t though, then you’ll find something easily at each place. Would recommend and do again. The day flew by.

Our guide James was very knowledgable and provided an easy going day for us. Thanks James!

Harrison was our guide. He led us through J.K Rowling inspirations to write Harry Potter. He was engaging, knowledgeable and entertaining. Made us see Edinburgh through different lenses. Real magic atmosphere. We truly enjoyed it. He has also given great suggestions for restaurants and things to visit

I had this 3 day tour back in early July. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had. As the only solo traveller on this trip I was offered the seat right at the front, allowing me to see more of the stunning views from there and back down. Each day was amazing and there was so much to see. The Scottish Highlands are truly a stunning part of the world. Our tour guide was Rose, who is an absolute phenomenon at storytelling and a PRO at driving, who made us all feel at ease on those narrow roads! I cannot recommend this trip enough! I'm already planning to A massive thank you to Rose! And to the Hairy Coo company for this amazing, unforgettable experience!

Excellent trip, excellent guide/driver called B dog! he was a little different in a nice way, thoroughly enjoyed the day.

Such a fun trip! We got to see lots of different spots and got a lot of historical information via our guide, Scot(t?). He was full of dad jokes and Braveheart tidbits, and it was very fun. There's so much to see that you end up a bit rushed, but it's worth it for having such good guides.

We had a fantastic day with Steven B who was funny and informative! We liked the stories mixed with the history, and adding the music was a great touch too! Lots of stops and we saw more than expected from the road, including the Kelpies and lots of castles as well as the gorgeous scenery of the Highlands. Definitely worth visiting Urquhart Castle and doing the Loch Ness boat tour (optional extras).

Our tour guide Gregor had excellent stories and history to share. The Kelpies were incredible! Sterling castle was so interesting. We enjoyed the whole trip.

Kienan was a wealth of Harry Potter information . We were divided into houses and had Trivia along the way to win house points. It was a great tour. I’d highly recommend.
