Edinburgh Old Town Food Tour of 6+ Tastings of Scotch, Haggis, & More

Welcome to Edinburgh, a city of castles, cobblestones, and culinary surprises. Whether it’s bathed in sunshine, wrapped in mist, or glowing under the rain, Scotland’s capital feels like something from a fairy tale. On our Secret Food Tour: Edinburgh, you’ll uncover its stories while enjoying 6+ traditional tastings in the historic Old Town, guided by a passionate local who knows the city inside out.

We begin with Cullen Skink, a rich and comforting smoked haddock soup that sets the tone for Scotland’s love of hearty flavors. Of course, no trip to Scotland would be complete without trying haggis with neeps and tatties - a dish that locals cherish and visitors quickly learn to love.

Next, you’ll indulge in cranachan, Scotland’s king of desserts, layered with cream, raspberries, oats, and a splash of whisky. Along the way, you’ll satisfy your sweet tooth with handmade Scottish fudge, proof that simple ingredients can create unforgettable treats.

Naturally, Scotland is also world-famous for its drinks, and during the tour you’ll enjoy a dram of single malt Scotch whisky, crafted with centuries of tradition. It’s a true taste of Scotland in a glass.

As with all our tours, you’ll also discover our mystery Secret Dish, revealed only on the day, to surprise and delight your palate.

But this experience is more than just food - it’s about immersing yourself in the history and culture of Edinburgh’s Old Town. As you walk its medieval closes and atmospheric streets, your guide will share stories of the city’s colorful past: from royalty to rebellions, poets to philosophers, and how it all shaped the food traditions you’re tasting today.

By the end of your journey, you’ll have not only enjoyed a feast of Scottish classics but also gained a deeper appreciation of Edinburgh as a city of resilience, flavor, and heart.
