Hidden Gardens of the Royal Mile

Greenyonder's most popular tour. Take an easy walking tour to discover a little-known side of Edinburgh's Old Town: behind the historic buildings find the surprising number of gardens and green 'nooks and crannies', all with a story to tell.

You'll hear about grand gardens of the past, enjoy productive community gardens created by today's residents, and take a breather in a beautiful space laid out and planted as a 17th century Scots town garden.

"I've lived in Edinburgh for years and hadn't seen a third of these gardens! I've done loads of walking tours but this one is the best by far." Review left on the Edinburgh Fringe website 2018

" ... Excellently researched - she really knew what she was talking about." Review left on the Edinburgh Fringe website 2018

"A splendid afternoon. You showed us places that we were all blissfully unaware of and were delighted to have revealed to us. We all thoroughly enjoyed your stream of lovely anecdotes and came away much wiser about this unique bit of Edinburgh."
