Alan with Ecosse tours gave us an excellent day tour of Edinburgh. He picked us up at our hotel and we spent the day touring that included a nice dinner. We ended the day at the Military Tatoo. I highly recommend

Our tour guide Paul was very knowledgeable regarding the history of the various parts of the city and Scotland as a whole, which made it a very enjoyable day. Rosslyn Chapel was beautiful, dinner was delicious and the Military Tatoo was exciting. I would highly recommend Ecosse Tours.

Edinburgh Royal military Tattoo.
Having been several times for the last decade, I can honestly say that the show has changed a lot, and in my humble opinion, not for the better. The ambience and excitement is the same prior to the show, but where is the chap who used to have bNter with the crow3, "who's f t om America, who's from Chin, who's from England? Etc, mentions names big shout outs etc, and during the show introduce the acts, not just leave people to try and figure out where they come from. They used to have a kids choir, not NY more. What happened to all the military stuff? Where's the white helmets motorcycles, things of that nature, drill teams from America or somewhere. The mSs pipes and drums are the backbone of the show along with the Highland dancers. But honestly, it's been cut down to just over an hour now. And at £75 per ticket it's lost its audience. I've no doubt it will be sold out as per every year, but for those of us who have been going for years, it's not what this great show once was. Shame. Can't see me attending anytime soon, rather just go to the Fringe and a show.
Bring back the military side of things and get it back to its roots. Bring back the commentator.

As an 80-year-old single woman I wanted to be sure that I wasn't abandoned by Viator as I had been in Reykjavik earlier in the week causing me to miss my ship! Alan is wonderful as is his crew. He knows how to find you when other companies could care less - he turns every stone and looks in every nook and cranny until he finds you - and I mean literally! The tour itself was marvelous, but the main thing is that you won't get left behind. He takes individual care of his clients. It is the best by far of any tour I have taken. Dinner was delicious too. Yes, it is a bit more expensive than some tours, but you can rest assured he will find you, get you to the proper place at the proper time, and return you to the ship on time. I can't say enough for Alan, his crew, and the tour. Worth every penny!

This is a not to be missed event. The music, marching and light show were amazing! We were in the last row of the stadium, but could see everything! The bagpipes and Scottish dancers were the highlight!

The tattoo was GREAT, beautiful weather, great seats, wonderful program. The only problem I had was that they did not announce who the different groups were. They were selling a book about the size of a good sized magazine but I just wanted what I thought of as a "program", something similar to what you get when you go to a play. There was nothing like that. The only group announced was from New Zealand, don't know why the others were not. With some of the groups, you could tell, it was obvious who they were, others not so much. But, I do highly recommend. You just might want to consider buying the book.

Alan was a wonderful guide and entertaining host. The entire tour was lovely, I wish we had more time on the Royal Mile, but other than that we all had an amazing day! My (83yo) dad had a wonderful time on his bucket list trip with his daughters. As a plus, he has very comfortable van.

This tour was the highlight of our trip. Aside from the beautiful architecture and buildings, the excitement of the Royal Tattoo, Alan, our guide was exceptional. His knowledge and fabulous sense of humor made for a wonderful day out.
