New Town and Dean Village Free Tour
Discover a different side of Edinburgh on a guided walk through the elegant New Town and picturesque Dean Village. Your local guide will share the architecture, stories and hidden corners that make these two areas essential stops in the city.
Description
This free tour of Edinburgh's New Town and Dean Village begins beside the Balmoral Hotel, near the statue of the Duke of Wellington. Your guide will introduce you to impressive architecture, fascinating stories and quiet corners away from the busiest streets.
Unlike our Old Town free tour, this walk explores the Georgian New Town, including some of the best views of Edinburgh Castle from Princes Street Gardens.
The tour finishes in Dean Village, a peaceful neighbourhood beside the Water of Leith that feels like a hidden village in the heart of Edinburgh.
