Step back in time to Edinburgh as it was in the late summer of 1745. Robert, our award-winning Edinburgh tour guide, will take you around the Edinburgh Old Town locations, which played a role in one of the most exciting times in Edinburgh's history.
You'll walk in the footsteps of Prince Charles Edward Stewart and his Highland Army. Robert will take you to the places which played a part in the events of the Jacobite army's occupation (or is that 'liberation') of the city. You'll learn about the attempts to hold back the Jacobites, the obstacles Bonnie Prince Charlie faced, and how he finally took the city.
