Overview

Explore Edinburgh’s Hills, History and Hidden magic as you embark on the brand new and exciting tour. Join us for 2 Hours. 2 Adventures. 1 Magical Edinburgh Experience.

With its dramatic volcanic peaks, winding streets and glacial valleys, Edinburgh is a city built on hills — and there’s no better way to discover it than by e-bike. Embark on a one-hour journey to the iconic Arthur’s Seat, an ancient volcanic landscape formed millions of years ago, where spectacular views meet centuries of Scottish history, folklore and legend, experiencing the city from a whole new perspective.

The tour continues by foot, as you journey into the heart of Edinburgh’s atmospheric Old Town showcasing what is thought to be the inspiration behind the wizarding world of Harry Potter.

    We'll drop our bikes back at our base, then make our way to the Royal Mile on foot to marvel at the medieval architecture and narrow closes.
