Introduction to Joe Harrower

As a citizen of our wonderful and magical Capital city, Edinburgh, I take great delight in walking tours through the Old Town and the Georgian New Town. Edinburgh is a tale of two cities and every street, nook, and cranny, has a story behind it. My tours provide context and bring the City’s History to life.

I have always had a keen interest and hobby in promoting Scotland to visitors, especially my international colleagues. I decided to turn my interest into a profession and was pleased to be accepted onto the Scottish Tourist Guide Association’s course at my Alma Mater, Edinburgh University, which provides its successful graduates with a complete coverage of Scotland.

I love guiding in Scotland and showing visitors the best assets our country has. Whether it is our cities and towns, our mountains and glens, and its people. Regardless of your interest, be it history, geography, geology, city tours or recreation and incentives, I am fully equipped to provide the best of professional services all wrapped up in great fun.
