Highlights

Embark on a brilliant and witty dramatic romp through the wynds, courtyards, and pubs of Edinburgh's Old and New Town with the intrepid duo, Clart and the clean-hankied intellectual McBrain. Prepare for a hilarious duel of wits across 300 years of great writing and colorful characters. The Edinburgh Literary Pub Tour features a dramatic script performed by two professional actors, not tour guides, reading from books. Delve beyond the well-known figures of Burns, Scott, and Stevenson to discover the most colorful, literary characters who have added humor and wit to the unique tavern life of the Old and The New Town. This award-winning tour, launched in 1996, has delighted over 150,000 customers on a dramatic literary trail across Edinburgh.
