Additional Information & Description
Edinburgh’s historic streets and royal landmarks form the setting for this self-guided audio tour, with commentary covering the city’s history, art and culture. You set the pace rather than following a guide, making the walk a chance to spend time with the subjects and places that interest you.
Explore Edinburgh Castle’s exterior
The route takes you to Edinburgh Castle, where the audio introduces the city’s past as you explore the exterior. This part of the visit focuses on the castle from outside; access to the interior is not included. An interior tour requires a separate admission ticket at your own expense, so the audio tour itself should not be treated as castle entry.
Walk around Arthur’s Seat
Arthur’s Seat brings an outdoor stretch to the itinerary, with a walk around the hill and time away from the streets. The tour has a stated duration of four hours. Sample itineraries help you plan how to approach the visit, with suggestions for a single day in Edinburgh or a longer stay.
What you receive and where to start
The ticket includes a downloadable audio guide app and a self-guided audio tour in English. Bring your own mobile device and headset: neither is included, and no live guided tour accompanies the audio. Castlehill is the starting area. Tickets are delivered instantly and can be presented on a smartphone.
