Edinburgh past, present and future…

We love Edinburgh but could we tweak some things? Or daringly suggest a few radical rethinks?

This is a new kind of interactive walking tour. Come with an open mind. Come with your sparkly, unusual ideas. Or simple ideas which may have been overlooked. Let’s look at what we can learn from other cities. All welcome. Yes, bring the kids. Bring your friends. Bring your dogs. Bring your whole family.

Tour guide Annabel Allen grew up in Edinburgh. As the daughter of an urban planner, she learned to cast a quizzical eye over cities. She has lived in 6 other cities but keeps coming back to Edinburgh. She will introduce some lesser-known history and ask some stimulating questions about now and the future.

2pm-4pm Sunday February 11 & 25, March 10 & 24, 2024

More coming as the weather warms up…

This fabulous tour is brought to you by Love Life More Tours & Events, the creator of Daring Women of Edinburgh walking tours.

What people say about our tours:

“We really enjoyed the Daring Women of Edinburgh tour - especially our inspired 7 year old daughter! Thank you Annabel” - Paul Diggle

"I had an amazing experience on the Daring Women of Edinburgh tour. I felt that the tour provided a unique perspective and fresh insight to the history of Scotland while building a sense of appreciation. Annabel was very friendly and approachable as a guide. She also demonstrated deep knowledge and passion for the different points of interest along the tour."- Javon Walker

"I went on Annabel's Daring Women of Edinburgh walking tour with a friend and we had an amazing time!
Annabel showed us an exciting new side of Edinburgh and introduced us to women's stories that were not only very interesting but also very inspiring.
The tour was therefore not only historically valuable but also made us reflect on our society and ourselves.
I highly recommend the tour!" - Franziska Heck
