Experience Details

Join Edinburgh host Nell for a true local experience. This food tour showcases the best of Scottish cuisine from independent suppliers while exploring the stunning UNESCO-listed Georgian New Town and the vibrant Stockbridge village.


What’s Included:

Enjoy smoked salmon canapés with gin mocktails/cocktails in an 18th-century bar, three port and chocolate tastings from Scotland’s oldest wine merchant, local Scottish cheeses, meat or veggie haggis, and ice cream from Joelato. End the tour in a hidden speakeasy with a single dram of whisky.


This lunchtime/afternoon tour offers a delicious taste of Scotland in a charming, less touristy part of Edinburgh—an ideal complement to the Old Town.
