Advertisement
Highlights GPS-triggered audio plays automatically as you approach each landmark - explore Edinburgh at your own pace, with no group and no fixed start time. 15 stops across Edinburgh, roughly 97 minutes of narration, walked in whatever order and at whatever speed suits you. Works fully offline once downloaded, so you need no data or signal while you walk. Your code never expires and there is no fixed date - buy now and use it whenever you next visit.   Explore Edinburgh at your own pace A black Gothic spire needles the Edinburgh sky, and the Scott Monument casts long shadows over stories that refuse to stay buried. This self guided audio tour leads through the Old Town and beyond, pairing famous sights with overlooked corners like Moubray House and the National Archives of Scotland. Hear the city speak in rebellions, scandals, political battles, and forgotten moments most visitors walk straight past. What desperate message could turn a crowd near the Scott Monument from admiration to alarm? Which sealed record in the National Archives of Scotland hints at a mystery no one wanted solved? Why does Moubray House keep reappearing in oddly specific tales of vanished papers and names crossed out at midnight?   Photo: Adam Wilson , Unsplash   Tour details Duration: 1 hour 31 minutes, entirely at your own pace Distance: around 3.6 km (2.2 miles) Stops: 15 landmarks, including North Bridge, Edinburgh, Old St Paul's, Edinburgh, Moubray House Audio: up to 38 minutes of narration Starts at: North Bridge, Edinburgh     How it works Book here and a redemption code arrives by email within minutes.

AudaTours turns a walk through a city into a story. Our guides bring landmarks to life with the history, the scandals and the detail you would never get from a plaque.

There is no in-person guide. It does not include entry to any building or site along the route. The landmarks on the tour are not affiliated with AudaTours. You need a smartphone with Android 7.0 or later, or iOS 16 or later. Bring headphones and start with a charged phone.   Who it suits Solo travellers, couples, families and small groups who would rather explore on their own schedule than follow a guide and a fixed departure time. It suits a first visit, and it suits anyone who has already seen the famous sights and wants to know what actually happened in them.   Image credits Photos: Adam Wilson , Ben Guerin , Vishnu Prasad , Kate Bielinski , Abhishek Banik , K.
