Thistle & Dram
Don’t just Tour Scotland - Experience it!
Showing you the real Scotland through its stories and culture!
Stories of Old Town Experience
Let me take you on a journey through the winding streets of Edinburgh’s historic Old Town. Learn the origins of Scotland’s Capital and see how it transformed into one of the most beautiful cities in the world. I’ll regale you with all my favourite stories of the people who once walked the streets of this great city.
Tales of Edinburgh Pub Tour
Edinburgh’s greatest artists and thinkers exchanged ideas while sharing a drink in a good old fashioned pub. Let’s follow in their footsteps! Between the first, thirst quenching beer, to the last golden dram, be immersed in the story of Edinburgh as we weave our way up the Royal Mile.
Experience Scotland’s music, history and culture.
Complete Edinburgh Experience
From rebellious Queens to scandalous ministers. From corpse selling killers to controversial philosophers. From rowdy punk rockers to ambitious revolutionaries. Become captivated in the tales of Edinburgh’s past and present as we weave our way through the Old and New town. I’ll show you how the people of Scotland once lived, and how we live today.
Hi, I’m Damien
Founder of Thistle and Dram, I take great pleasure in meeting people from around the world and sharing the stories of my home town.
I started tour guiding in 2018, but I’ve been a historical reenactor since 2010 and I’ve always been passionate about history.
My aim is to show the real Scotland. The good, the bad, the ugly and the darn right beautiful. I don’t want you to just tour Scotland, I want you to experience it!
