Almost at 500 members! 🙌❤️ (+ a new 'Recommended Hotels' video)
Just a massive thanks to all of you for joining my Edinburgh Insider's group early. Up to this point, the group has been totally free and will remain FREE FOR YOU GUYS FOREVER. However, after we hit 500 members, I'll be going all out to make this group amazing. I'll be adding premium content, services, discount codes, etc to the group. This means that new members will be charged monthly. The revenue will allow me to build a real business and give you guys better and better stuff for free in the process. 😎 BTW, I've just added a video I made before Christmas showing you guys my top 10 hotel recommendations. My wife and I worked really hard on this to make sure they were unique, thoughtful and varied choices. Hope it's useful. Loads more to come. This is just the start!

@David William Bryan elective surgery. Nasty heel spur had been pressing into that Achilles for over two years so it was definitely overdue.

@Andy McCallum boy you’re not kidding! We tracked over a 10 mile day the first time we were there, and we never got outside the city center! I love to see all of the TikTok and Instagram videos with girls in fancy outfits and heels, knowing that just off camera is a pair of trainers for them to slip into after every shot! 🤣
Cemeteries
Some of my favorite places to wander when visiting a city are cemeteries and Grayfriars Kirkyard doesn’t disappoint. The quiet, the interesting headstones and vaults, and the occasional visitor who reminds us that we all eventually become food for a crow. 🥴

@Andy McCallum I think we have our newest recommendation for folks visiting the city - have a spring or summer picnic in a cemetery. 😊. I’m game for that!
Is Mary King’s Close worth visiting? 🤔👀
Here’s my super honest review of one of Edinburgh’s busiest attractions👇 https://www.skool.com/edinburgh-lovers-2707/classroom/e72803d5?md=9a7b194657644af2a86a0e532bf1335c Please comment if you’ve been and agree / disagree. Priority is letting the group members know where best to spend their money. This is soooo subjective, so if your experience was different please please please let everyone know. But as usual, honesty is the value here ❤️

I’m so glad that your review confirmed my reason for not doing the tour the other times we’ve been there. But I think the Catacombs in Paris set the bar and ruined us on the spooky factor of any future underground tour. 🤣
Watch this video >> THE VISION FOR THIS GROUP ❤️
Good morning folks! Made this little video while walking Reggie this morning. Just a quick one to share my vision for the group moving forward! I'd really love to hear from you guys what would be most useful features. Ultimately, this group has been created to provide the most value to you guys, so let me know what you'd like to see in the group. Always best to ask members rather than guess! :-)

My wife and I love to find or stumble across the things in and around a city that the typical websites and guide books don’t put in front of you. Eats, drinks, and sites that are cool, fun, edgy or quirky, or historically interesting but that aren’t on every top 10 or 20 list. That’s the stuff that always feels the most authentic and local.
