Edinburgh Tours & Excursions

The tour was really good as we didn’t need to drive. The least you want to do on holidays drive the roads you don’t know. The highlands were really impressive. The driver Rich was very knowledgable and friendly. The only thing we would change extra 45 min would be nice after we leave ship

It was FANTASTIC! Wear comfortable shoes (I bought sneakers with memory foam and it was a BLESSING) and dress warm (bring a sweater and a jacket; Isle of Skye is pretty chilly and you will see some FANTASTIC scenery throughout the trip, but a lot of it is at the top of hills and the wind isn't very forgiving) and you will enjoy yourself immensely! And if you can, request Brian Smith as your guide; you will NOT regret it. He will keep you so entertained that you will be sad when the trip is over. Genuinely friendly and hilarious; a perfect example of what I was hoping for in a Scottish man/guide =) As a proud lover of warm weather (and the U.S....most days), only Brian could have me strongly considering moving to Scotland. (I hope you are reading this Brian! It's Princess, and I wrote that last part just for you. =) )

Absolutely incredible experience. This tour was everything we were looking for and more. George was a true gentleman, entertainer and warm guide throughout. It really felt like a road trip with a friend, and we loved George's constant grandad jokes! We will definitely ask for George next time we visit Scotland!

Great tour, Highly recommend for Harry Potter lovers! A beautiful way to see the city of Edinburgh. Xander is a fabulous guide!

It was an amazing tour, the only thing that for me would improve it, would be few more minutes to eat in the last stop. Besides that, this day is one of the highlights of my trip, was an incredible experience to know this region of breathtaking landscapes, I wish I could go back soon.

It was amazing, from beginning to end the sights were breathtaking and it almost felt like the weather was on our side because every time we stopped for pictures the sky would clear. Definitely recommend it! The tour guide was also excellent and told us all the story behind what we were seeing. I loved learning a bit more about Scotland’s history

The guide was outstanding, he was very knowledgeable about the series and Scottish history. Great sense of humor

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

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.

This tour was top notch. Our guide, Mia, was so knowledgeable and told us many stories along the way. She offered suggestions and was so pleasant. I would highly recommend this tour and company. Until next time!

At first I thought 12 hours would be a long trip to take, and going in winter with less sunlight would make it less enjoyable. But the time was well worth it and the winter experience added to the excitement as there was changes from place to place along the way, from rain to snow, overcast to clear blue skys. Our tour guild was very good and with a wonderful way of sharing history and local knowledge. Highly recommended and will treasure my trip.

Our tour guide was enthusiastic, he led us through the main inspirations in old town Edinburgh for JK when she wrote the HP series. He kept it entertaining with sorting the group int houses and awarding points for trivia, also provided a lot of info on the inspirations of the series that were not based on Edinburgh. Kept everyone interested despite very cold windy rainy weather hitting us. Must do for super fans

This was the best trip of our 4 day stay in Edinburgh. Big shout out to Bryan Smith from The Hairy Coo. He was really funny and gave a really good commentary about Scottish history, which I liked. He made the trip very enjoyable, even getting the whole coach to sing. Big thank you from your London family including Moose, your wingman!!

As a huge Outlander fan, obviously the best stop was Midhope Castle (Lallybroch)! Our tour guide was Bob and he was a delight with his humour sprinkle on all the historic info he would share across all our stops during the day.

We had Robbie as a tour guide and couldn't recommend enough! Knowledgeable, enthusiastic and just a great guide.

Our first time in Scotland and Edinburgh, what a wonderful experience. Pity it was only a 4 day visit as in hindsight, we could easily have spent a good two weeks there ; so much going on in Edinburgh, gourmet cuisines, Museums ( some free entry),beautiful architecture, Castles and an easy of getting around either by walking or public transport. Then the highlight of our visit, the Lock Ness, Glen COE and Highlands tour with Gary..our Driver and Guide who showed an exceptional knowledge of the History of places and peoples. This was a 12.5 hour round trip with lots of "pit" and photo opportunity stops. Gary kept us entertained throughout the journey with his commentaries and wit.

It was incredible but we need it more time at Glenfinnan to see the Jocobite train. Our guide was very explicit about Scotland history, very entertaining. Thank you again!!

A Five-Star Scottish Adventure Thanks to Martin! My group of five friends just returned from an incredible tour of Scotland with E2G Tours, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Our guide, Martin, was truly exceptional. The service was great from start to finish. Martin is highly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating history and insights everywhere we went. Crucially, he made the entire trip fun and engaging. Everything was perfectly organized and efficient, ensuring we saw so many cool things across Scotland without ever feeling rushed. It was a seamless, joyful adventure. We would absolutely do this trip all over again, especially if Martin was our guide! Highly, highly recommend E2G Tours and the fantastic Martin.

Our tour guide, Lizzy, made the whole day SO MUCH FUN. My sister and I flew over to Scotland from our Dublin vacation for just the day. We had the absolute best day touring the filming locations with Lizzy at the helm. As we drove she'd share interesting tidbits of history or Outlander stories. Her being an Outlander superfan helped to make the day extra special. We loved the whole experience! Can't recommend the day highly enough.

Fabulous trip with a fabulous guide. Peter really knew his stuff and pointed out lots of interesting sights as well as providing us with different facts and knowledge about Scotland. The lochs were beautiful as were the highlands which we saw on the way. There were just the right about of stops for comfort breaks/ gift shop opportunities. All in all a brilliant trip!
