Love the history.

We really enjoyed this tour! Charlotte is very passionate about the history and we learned so much. The physical walk was reasonable and the length of time for the tour was just right.

Charlotte’s historical account was entertaining and informative

We are a family with multiple age groups and Charlotte’s anecdotes of Edinburgh history kept everyone engaged throughout the tour. She kept it light while telling us about things that had happened hundreds of years ago!

Charlotte was very...

Charlotte was very knowledgeable and passionate about Edinburgh! Very informative tour. Smaller size tour was also enjoyable.

Response from the operator: Dear Dan Thank you so much for your review. I appreciate every single one. It is great to hear that you enjoyed your tour. Walk The Old Town specializes in smaller group tours which provides the visitor with a more intimate experience, seeing Edinburgh through the eyes of a local and going places you would ordinarily have missed were you in a larger group. Nothing wrong with larger groups, it's just that often in larger groups the quality of a tour may diminish due to the size, and navigation can get tricky. Thank you so much for your feedback, wishing you a lovely day and safe travels. Best wishes Charlotte

Old town tour

Great experience, Charlotte was lovely! We did a tour along The Royal Mile - Charlotte is truly passionate about its history and no question was left unanswered - left the tour with a deeper appreciation for the Old Town.

Response from the operator: Dear Visitor Thank you so very much for your review. Getting feedback is so important for a small company like mine and I am so happy to know that you enjoyed your experience. Thank you so much for booking with me, it was a pleasure to meet you. Best wishes Charlotte

Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Edinburgh.

How much does Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland cost?

+

Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Edinburgh usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland take?

+

Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Edinburgh is not rushed.

Is Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 50 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Edinburgh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland?

+

No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

Is Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland?

+

Around 18 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Edinburgh can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Edinburgh and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Rebel!Rebel! Jacobite Tour - Outlander's Scotland start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Edinburgh within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Edinburgh?

+

On Outty we rank every Edinburgh experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Edinburgh: Loch Ness, Glencoe and The Highlands, Edinburgh: Glenfinnan Viaduct, Glencoe & Fort William, Edinburgh Ghost Tour: Mysteries, Legends and Murders. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Edinburgh?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Edinburgh?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
