Highly recommend this walking tour! The storytelling was fun, engaging, and full of passion for Scotland’s history. The tour ran a bit longer than expected, but everyone stayed until the end because it was so interesting. We even tried his restaurant recommendation afterwards and loved it. He clearly has a real love for his city and country, which makes the experience unique and memorable.

Got the chance to join a small group on a rare sunny morning for a walk across old town. The tour covers important parts around the castle and royal mile, and moves at a steady pace making it perfect for people of all ages.
Fraser is well equipped with the historical knowledge of the sites visited, and had answers to pretty much all of our queries during the walk. The tour is fun and you get chances aplenty to interact and bond with the rest of the group.
Highly recommend for an informative and leisurely experience of the best of Edinburgh.

A great activity for an afternoon in Edinburgh with a very sweet canine tour assistant. Loved learning more about Edinburgh’s queeroes and villains and the tour itself was very accessible- limited stairs! Easy to find and a great spot to check out other places around the royal mile before and afterwards

Fraser Horn was awesome! They were able to keep 12 American teenagers entertained- very funny and great information, including answering a lot of questions asked by the kids. Walking through the graveyard was really cool. Highly recommended!

Fraser is an excellent local guide who tells passionate stories of LGBT folk bringing back stories of forgotten and untold histories. If you're in Edinburgh, go see them.

I booked a tour of the Old Edinburgh yesterday and it was fantastic. It was raining for the first part but that didn't make it less great. Fraser is very knowledgeable and funny, and the experience was very enjoyable. I now also have a great list of food recommendations to try out.
100% would recommend. They also offer other tours such as the Forgotten Women in history, which I think is a great initiative and I wish I could come back to book it as well.

We had an unforgettable time exploring Edinburgh with Fraser and his little companion, Auggie! Fraser is not just a guide—he’s a storyteller, a performer, and a true history enthusiast who brought the city’s past to life with flair. His tour offered a rich and refreshing perspective on Edinburgh’s history, including fascinating feminist narratives that are too often overlooked.
The balance between being informative and entertaining was spot on—insightful, theatrical, and never boring! We genuinely cherished every moment and felt like we were walking through the city with an old (and very witty) friend.
If you’re looking to discover Edinburgh’s hidden stories and experience its history off the beaten path, this tour is an absolute must. Highly recommend!
