The Edinburgh Cheese Crawl

Christale was very friendly and knowledgeable Enjoyed some great cheeses, good variety. Visited cheesemongers in Stockbridge.

Kieran was absolutely fabulous. Really knowledgeable, and great fun. He was very happy to help and answer any questions. It helped that the weather was fab but we would thoroughly recommend

Informative, entertaining and very tasty.. Great fun. The guide, Kerin, was excellent. I learnt what quality cheese tastes like..

Definitely not what we expected. From the description we thought we'd be going inside different outlets to taste what they sell/make with a glass of prossecco, the reality was the opposite. We realised we'd be walking, what we didn't realise was that it would be at speed. The tour guide failed to ask if anyone had any problems with mobility and with the rest of the group sped off. My daughter and I are slow walkers asthmatic and other health issues and simply couldn't keep up with the group. The tour kind didn't even realise how far behind we were until she stopped at the first outlet. Were we remaind outside while the guide went inside to bring out a selection of cheeses. We stood on the kerbside to taste. We then moved on to the next outlet and again stood outside while the guide again went to get what we'd be trying. The speed of the walk didn't change even though I was now finding it very difficult to stay with the group. On the way to the next shop the guide informed us we'd have to wait while she went to sainsbury to purchase some bottles of prossecco, what a con. At this point my daughter and I decided to drop out of the tour. At £30 per person I'd expect something better than what we received...I do feel like I was conned and that the tour simply provides the tour guide with a continuous supply of various cheeses at the customers expense. Personally I could have done my own tour at a fraction of the cost...At a pace that wasn't verging on a jog and found it more enjoyable. I can't recommend this tour

Our guide Crystal was great. Cheese was amazing, neighborhood was lovely. Would not have found these cheese shops without a local guide.

Our guide Kristel’s vast bank of information, oh and the cheese and Prosecco. All very interesting and enjoyable.

The guide was very good, but the trip does not take into consideration the weather conditions. We were outside for 2 hours in rain and sleet and snow, in temperatures of 2 degrees. Surely a couple of stops inside a cheesemonger or coffee shop would have been appropriate?

Crystal was wonderful and full of knowledge. She descriptions and love of cheese came through each time she shared one with us.

Very enjoyable experience, learnt a lot about the cheeses and enjoyed tasting them all. Crystal our tour guide made it a very fun and informative experience!

Lovely tour guide and delicious cheeses. Let down by the price. £60 for two people, when all seven cheeses (for all 16 people) would come to about that, was a bit disappointing. There weren't any cheese puns or quizzes either!
