A lovely way to spend a few hours - Great tour with Jenny, a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Learned not just about the different cheeses but about the area too. Plenty opportunities to taste, chat and browse in cheese shops. A lovely way to spend a few hours.

Yummy experience with a kind tour guide - Went on the cheese tour with a few friends, our favorite part was the last stop being in the park to enjoy the last few cheeses and complimentary wine. Since I don’t drink alcohol, our very kind tour guide Xander went out of his way to get me a soft beverage of my choosing. This was so kind of him to do for me. We also got to try a free sample of chicken lived paté, which is a local favorite bite. This was a very neat experience to try local bites!

If you like cheese this is a great tour to do! - We went to multiple local businesses and had some wonderful and delicious cheese! It was a lot fun to try all the varieties. The day we went the weather was a bit on the cool side and most of the tastings were outside so dress appropriately! Our tour guide was very knowledgable!

The right amount of great cheese! - Xander was very friendly and knowledgeable! The three stops were each unique! I enjoyed the cheese and background information. Stockbridge is a great part of Edinburgh that we may have missed without this tour.

A delightful day eating our way through Edinburgh - We arrived to Edinburgh and, while most tourists would opt for a hop-on-hop-off or a city tour, we decided to ... eat cheese! And we had a wonderful time. Kieran gave us a great education about the local cheese shops and what makes their cheeses special. We tasted 7-8 different cheeses at 3 local shops and had a bit of a wine pairing at the last one. It was a truly delightful introduction to the city.

Fantastic experience - I recommend this tour to everyone who likes cheese. Kieran, our guide, was excellent, and made the tour fun and informative. He took us to three cheesemongers in Stockbridge - George Mewes, Herbie and Mellis. We enjoyed samples from each of the shops with Kieran sharing his knowledge about the different cheeses. We enjoyed a glass of wine at our last stop, a wee park.
