How the Edinburgh walking tours work
Clues & Puzzles
Clues don't require any prior knowledge and are made up of two parts:
1) Obscured directions that make reference to the city around you. Unravel their meaning and be guided by your surroundings.
2) A puzzle to be solved once you've followed the directions, search nearby to find your answers.
CityDays aim for an enjoyable, just-the-right-amount, level of difficulty that is inclusive for all! Help messages are available should you need a bit of support.
Guided by clues sent to your phone
- Receive snippets of history, quirky facts and intriguing stories about the areas you visit.
- Pub/cafe breaks along your hunt, all totally optional and some with discounts on food & drinks.
- Make memories at locations along the way, get inspiration from previous teams and share a clever snap!
- Go at your own speed, or go for top spot on the game leaderboard.
You can't tick off Scotland without visiting Edinburgh, a capital brimming with rich culture and history.
The Secret City's tours will take you to secret spots most visitors miss, see where the locals go and learn about Edinburgh's Old Town and Royal Mile.
Our aim: for you to fall in love with Edinburgh too
