PLEASE NOTE: Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, Edinburgh's Open Streets days have been suspended until further notice.

These tours provide a welcome opportunity to explore the Royal Mile – the heart of Edinburgh's historic Old Town – on roads that will be completely closed to motor vehicles.

The tours are led by the same expert local guides who lead our highly-praised free Royal Mile tours during the Edinburgh International Festival and Fringe.

For details of dates, times and meeting point, please check back here nearer the time.

If you prefer not to wait for our Open Streets tours to resume, talk to us about a custom tour for your family or group.
