Incredible cheese! - My boyfriend and I went today, it was the best day ever! Xander our tour guide was informative, engaging and so friendly. He also so accommodating with my gluten and nut allergy. So many different types of cheese, didn’t feel rushed and also got to have some wine! Wonderful cheese and learnt all the history behind them. Would definitely recommend to a cheese lover!

A brilliant tour! - Had an incredible time on this tour, very glad we booked it. Our guide Xander has a wonderful energy and made everyone feel welcome, he was also extremely knowledgeable about the local area and all the cheese we were trying. Of course the best part of the tour was the cheese itself, we got to try so many delicious cheeses and every shop we visited was very generous with allowing us to try samples. Overall a tremendous afternoon, would highly recommend it to any cheese lover!

A must for cheese lovers - A great way to spend a few hours in the city. Our guide treated us to loads of cheese facts and I was able to try cheeses I didn't even know existed. For cheese lovers this is the ultimate way to expand your knowledge and taste buds!

A real gem! - I can't say enough good things about this tour. It was really laid back but really educational as well. Our guide, Kieran, felt like an old friend, and really wowed us with his knowledge of the history of the cheese mongers in the region, as well as the cheeses themselves. He has good ties with the local shops and they treated us so warmly. The sample sizes were just the right amount and absolutely delicious. I definitely recommend this tour....and if Kieran is your guide, tell him I said hello from the States!

Great tour - highly recommend - Great tour led by Kieran our excellent guide, who was informative and entertaining. Visited three shops/delis and tasted a wide range of different cheeses from Scotland and beyond, plus a glass of wine. Would highly recommend - a great way to while away an afternoon in the charming Edinburgh neighbourhood of Stockbridge.

So much fun! - I found this tour randomly on Viator while searching for things to do in Edinburgh as a first time visitor and it was wonderful! I can’t say I ever considered cheese to be something significant to Scotland but, as a huge fan of cheese in general, this crawl is as equally delicious as it is interesting and informative. Kieran is such a sweetheart (who has curated such a thoughtful and lovely lineup of cheeses to sample) and we really enjoyed spending the afternoon with him. Highly recommend this really fun experience in Stockbridge!

Came through in the end - I had posted a poor review earlier due to the complications I had in trying to receive a refund for this event. The company came through and I think it only fair that I make sure the forum is aware that they did come through in the end! Thanks!!

Waste of money - I had to cancel this event because IT IS NOT CENTRALLY LOCATED TO ANY PUBLIC TRANSIT NOR IS IT CLOSE TO ANYTHING ELSE CONSIDERED ESSENTIAL TO EDINBURGH. In my attempt to get a refund all I got was bounced back and forth between Viator the local vendor, neither wanting to assist with the refund until it was past the allowed time. All they wanted was for me to rebook the event, which didn’t solve my problem. Don’t waste your money on this event - there’s too much of Edinburgh to experience without this headache!
