Ein bisschen Geschichte, ein bisschen Wissenswertes und ein paar kleine Witze. Geboren und aufgewachsen in Edinburgh, arbeitete ich 17 Jahre lang als Reporter, Feature-Autor und Filmredakteur beim Scotsman und schrieb anschließend regelmäßig für den Guardian und die London Times. Ich habe mehrere Bücher geschrieben und herausgegeben, darunter „The Times on Cinema“ und „On Location – The Film Fan’s Guide to Britain and Ireland“. Zuletzt war ich als Reiseführer im nationalen Fernsehen in der Sendung „This Morning“ zu sehen.
We decided to take Brian's tour because of his experience as a journalist and writer. We trusted it would be an insightful tour to Edinburgh, and happy to say, we were not disappointed. The nuggets of fun facts he peppered throughout the tour was great and he was very engaging throughout. The walk was also very easy as he took us down slope for most of the tour. Highly recommend to this to everybody!
Brian was an excellent guide. He had a depth of knowledge that made his comments insightful and far more than you could get from looking something up on the web. His quick wit also made the tour and each stop incredibly entertaining. He was easy-going and inviting to chat with as well. We would highly recommend Brian as a tour guide!
Clear speaking, engaging and informative. Explore Leith and discover the history of the area, its buildings and of significant figures who shaped it.
