2.Private Walking Tour of Edinburgh Castle with Skip-the-Line

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $765Top rated

Follow a private English-speaking guide from Edinburgh’s Royal Mile into Edinburgh Castle. Over about two hours, you’ll see the National War Museum, St. Margaret’s Chapel, the Crown Jewels, cannons, and Castle Terrace. Skip-the-line access helps you spend more time inside this sprawling fortress, though the high price suits visitors who value privacy and focused guidance.
