Your Edinburgh adventure will begin at the Scottish Parliament buildings, where you will marvel at the post modern architecture and hear about the history and politics of the new parliament Vs. the old parliament. Next, you will cross the Royal Mile to Whitefoord House, a residence for ex-servicemen who find themselves living on the streets. Here, you will learn about Invisible Cities and the work they’re doing to support and empower Edinburgh’s homeless community.

Canongate Cemetery is next where you will hear the story of the three Roberts: Robert Burns, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Robert Ferguson, and learn about Scotland’s extraordinary literary history. Several more historic stops will follow, including the old Tollbooth building and prison, the Tron Kirk church, the city walls and the old marketplace.

Your final stop will be the Grassmarket Community Project, a quirky community café that offers a range of social integration and educational activities for members. Here, you will enjoy the British tradition of tea and a scone, made with love by members of the project.
