We booked the walking guide tour for the Edinburgh castle and our guide Melanie Boyd was kind enough to wait for us. It's our first time in Edinburgh so we got lost but she accommodated us even though we were late. Melanie was very informative and absolutely hilarious! We loved having her as our guide. We learned a lot about Edinburgh Castle and Scottish history thanks to her and we had so much fun. Much love from the Philippines!
