About this Event
Did you know that Sherlock Holmes began life on Leith Walk?
Join us on for an hour of gentle walking of Edinburgh's Georgian New Town as we explore Edinburgh's illustrious music, literary and film history - from classical composers to 'Eurovision' and the iconic Scottish folk band 'The Corries.'
This is a unique and creative walking tour led by our passionate local historian Matthew Shiel and our talented resident 'Pied Piper,' Dr Jake Spence (PhD, University of Edinburgh) who will illustrate and accompany our journey with his enchanting fiddle playing - live!
"Matthew Shiel shone" (⭐⭐⭐⭐ThisWeek Culture)
Our tour begins and ends outside the Orchard bar and restaurant (1 Howard Place, Edinburgh EH3 5JP) and will include 30 minutes of gentle walking around the beautiful streets of Edinburgh's Georgian New Town - a UNESCO world heritage site. Following the tour, you will be given the opportunity to visit the Orchard bar for refreshments.
SPECIAL NOTICE - our 'Pied Piper' violinist can take musical requests! If you would like to be serenaded or have a special or sentimental melody you would like our resident violinist to play during our trip, please book a request during checkout. We'll be in touch to take your request once payment is processed.
