Edinburgh Food Tour
Edinburgh Food Tour
Feeling peckish yet? We'll meet up at your chosen time in front of St Giles' Cathedral, on the West Parliament Square Side, and set off on our food tour of Edinburgh.
To begin, we'll explore the Grassmarket and try Scotland's most famous dish: Haggis, neeps and tatties. Can you guess what they are?
Next, we'll stroll past the world-famous Edinburgh Castle while discussing its fascinating history. We'll also pause so you can take some photos of this beautiful building.
We'll then step inside our next venue so you can try some authentic Scottish whisky, which will be a delicious lowland single malt. Afterwards, you'll get to try some creamy cheese and discover why it's so popular in Scotland.
If you've got a sweet tooth, you'll love our final stop! We'll have a traditional afternoon tea accompanied by local Scottish cakes. Make sure you also leave room for our secret Scottish dish!
After 3 to 3 hours 30 minutes of traditional Scottish food, our tour will come to an end on St Mary's Street. See you next time!
