Overview

This incredible tour of Edinburgh begins in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle. We’ll take a leisurely walk through the Grassmarket up Victoria Street, one of the most photographed and beloved streets in all of Edinburgh. Along the way, we’ll point out various restaurants, shops, pubs, and other attractions you should check out while you are in Edinburgh. At our next stop near the Royal Mile, we’ll enjoy a delicious selection of chocolate, jammy, and other kinds of donuts at Mòr Bakery Followed shortly thereafter is a family-owned bakery with classic Scottish pastries that you are going to love.

After a quick pause for some photos, we’ll make our way to our last stop which is a specialty coffee shop and donutterie.

We hope you can join us on a fun-filled donut adventure in Scotland’s gorgeous capital city. Book your tour today!
