Free: All time
In the narrow streets of Edinburgh you were as likely to meet a murderer as a man of genius. Body-snatchers, witch hunters, firebrand priests and philosophers all living on the side of a dead volcano. The New Europe Sandeman’s free walking tour lasts 2.5 hours and covers all the main sights of the Old City of Edinburgh. Starting on the famous Royal Mile, the guide will lead the group through the windy streets and up the hills to sites of executions, cloned sheep and the birthplace of Harry Porter. The tour is free but the guides work on tip-basis.
