You can see it from half the city; up close it earns the cliché. Go at opening to beat the coach tours, and don’t skip the one o’clock gun.

How it works

Three questions in, a guide out

No hundred open tabs, no decision fatigue the moment you arrive. Just the places someone who knows the city would actually point you to.

Step 1

Tell us the shape of your trip

Where you’re going, who with, and roughly where you’re staying. Thirty seconds.

Step 2

Pick what you’re into

History, food, architecture, the outdoors — choose three to five. We weight the guide to match.

Step 3

Get a guide made for you

A ‘don’t miss’ band, then interest-labelled sections, on a map with colour-coded pins.

Arthur’s Seat

An extinct volcano in the middle of the city. Forty minutes up, the best view in Scotland down. Wear real shoes and check the wind.

Our promise

Only the places we’d send a friend to.

Not a list scraped off the internet. The cafe worth the walk, the view worth the climb, the dinner worth booking — the things a local would actually tell you.
