FREE VIRTUAL AUDIO TOURS

We created these audio tracks during our lockdown spell, so that you could still explore Edinburgh’s wonderful Royal Mile by listening to the tracks while guiding yourself using Street View. As Edinburgh opens again, though, they also make fantastic and free walking guides to the historic top section of the Royal Mile, from the Castle gates to Lawnmarket. (Part 1 of the tour is available also in Chinese, French, German, Italian and Spanish)
