Mountebank Scotland

Daniel’s walking tour was truly excellent and a great choice of a walking tour. He has an amazing knowledge of Scotland’s history and Edinburgh in general, and delivered so much interesting information in a fun and engaging way. Couldn’t recommend this comedy walking tour highly enough! We’ve been talking about it ever since and if you don’t do this tour, you’ve missed out big time. You’ll also need to do the tour to find out just what Daniel is demonstrating here… 🤣

Daniel is seriously knowledgeable and very funny. The Mountebank Comedy Walk is a great way to see Edinburgh, full of sharp humour and proper history. A brilliant mix of laughs and learning. Cheers poodle, highly recommend!

I’ve done a multitude of walking tours around the world so when I saw the option for a comedic tour in place of a “normal one” I was slightly apprehensive. “Would we feel pressure to laugh at everything for 2 hours straight?” I thought to myself. But we chanced it and now I can say it’s by far the most memorable walking tour I’ve ever done. Not only is Daniel a whip smart historian, his witty crowd work and ability to remember bits and bobs about everyone on the tour and crack jokes was really endearing and kept everyone engaged through a dense amount of historical anecdotes about Scottish History and points of interest around Edinburgh. In addition, Daniel has an adorable doggie Bran who was a treat to have along for the walk 🥰

What a fantastic way to spend an afternoon in Edinburgh! Daniel was an outstanding guide, giving all the info you could ask for and mixing in hilarious banter. Thoroughly enjoyed the time!

Daniel was entirely engaging, knowledgeable, entertaining, and passionate. He elicited a good balance of elucidation and group participation. We had a lot of laughs and learned new information about all things whiskey. Ten out of ten recommend.

My partner and I did this walking tour on our first day in Edinburgh to help keep us awake and get a general sense of the city. Daniel and his adorable dog Brahan were amazing and hilarious guides. The tour was informative (I learned so much!) and funny and just the right amount of activity for us. Thank you so much for a wonderful time.

Brilliant tour of Edinburgh. Very funny and eductional at the same time. Be prepared to be part of 'the show,' not for the easily offended, but for those with a good sense of humour. You will definitely learn and laugh a lot. Highly recommended

Daniel (tour guide) was funny, quick witted and very knowledgeable about history. He combined his degree in history with his comedy skills. Highly recommended walking tour. AM, USA
