Award-winning circular cycle tour of Edinburgh!

This is a cycle tour you won't find anywhere else. I shall take you where other tourists will not know about. There are other cycle tours in Edinburgh, but as I take small groups, you will be able to go at your own pace, ask as many questions as you like and take numerous photos without pressure of being rushed. This tour requires you to be able to cycle for a maximum distance of 20 miles with regular stops and at a slow -steady pace. This tour is not suitable for under 12 years. From Craigmillar Caste, to the stunning Dean Village, Leith and Portobello, you will be cycling through all the 'must-see' parts of Edinburgh that are off the tourist trail.

Itinerary

We shall make sure that your bikes are fitted comfortably before heading through The Meadows. Cycle path all the way onto The Union Canal passing canal boats, original 19th Century bridges and rowers out training.
We drop down onto a cycle ramp taking us on The Water of Leith. This is a beautiful walkway/cycle path passing under aqueducts, allotments, the rejuvenated Saughton Park with original Bandstand.
Passing Scotland's National Rugby Stadium - Murrayfield.
We continue towards Dean Village which is a World Heritage site. See Thomas Telfer's bridge and the original Edinburgh School Board house.
