The full Classic Tour loop last approximately 60 minutes. Frequency is  approximately 30 minutes.

Depending on the persons you are visiting Edinburgh with it is worth a thought. And especially if you have older persons or children in your party, it sounds obvious to consider 48h tickets. That it is if you are staying long enough in the city obviously, but there is a lot to see in Edinburgh! The price difference is normally very little and it can surely be worth it. As we write this article, you are paying 4 euros extra for the 48h ticket and 2 euros extra for child.

Please rest assured that we are not upselling here, but again Edinburgh is an incredible city and you have so much sightseeing to do here that, we certainly recommend you to stay a few days to get a true feel of its atmosphere and take time to explore and discover it!
