The Meadows Tour
Returning after a short Spring special, this highly popular 1-hour walking tour of Edinburgh's Meadows is a unique little experience.
About The Meadows Tour
Your expert guide Fraser Horn, founder of the Edinburgh Street Historians, will take you on a walk in the park and tell you about the surprising history of the place.
You'll hear how the Meadows has had a role to play in making the shape of modern Edinburgh. It's more than just a place to have a kick around and catch the sun.
This event is outside so wear appropriate clothing. It is accessible to those in wheelchairs as the ground is largely flat. The meeting place is in the clearing outside Uplands Roast, bookings are encouraged so we can have an idea of the numbers.
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
