Josh
Tour guide made the tour fun, interesting and fun. Taught me so much about Edinburgh and the hidden gems.
Josh
Our Tour guide was phenomenal, knowledgeable and round top guy.
Ashutosh
Shanna was a really great guide. She was knowledgeable and shared a lot of fun facts during the walk. She didn't rush through anything and was genuinely interested.
Monte
The whole area is beautiful and worth the look beyond this lane. I'm not saying its not worth the look but it does look like the rest of Scotland just with a curve. So if you've already seen Scottish vernacular architecture and had your fill than your good.
Archibald
Beautiful little winding streets near the village of Dean. Nice to see in combination with other things but I wouldnt go out there for this alone. The whole are near it/ the water of Leith is beautiful especially if the weather is decent.
Tania
Was a great and informative tour. Enjoyed the walk around Dean town and hearing about the history
Katherine
It was a beautiful area that I may not have seen if discovering on my own. Excellent and enthusiastic guide
Savannah
Very beautiful, I give kudos to the residents who keep the street looking wonderful year round. I loved walking through and admiring the flowers and greenery.
Ian
Very pretty street, but unless you are close to it I wouldn't go out of my way to look at it. It was busy enough when we were there but we could still take pictures without others overcrowding them.
Shelley
A lane famous for its prettiness. It was pretty, but not worth a special trip. The path is not wheelchair accessible as it has flower pots on it, which blocks movements. The road is cobbled so it is accessible if you do not mind a few bumps and have a wheelchair that is suitable for navigating cobbles.
