Do you want to discover a vibrant area away from the crowds of tourists? Are you a gin lover? Welcome to a unique and immersive experience in the heart of Edinburgh - a guided tour of the vibrant Leith neighbourhood followed by a visit to the renowned Lind & Lime Gin Distillery. Slàinte Mhath! (Cheers in Scots Gaelic!)

Tour Highlights:

  • Explore Leith: Our journey begins in the historic Leith, where you'll be greeted by your knowledgeable guide for a 45mn walking tour. Off the beaten path, Leith is a treasure trove of history, culture, and modern charm. Explore the alleyways of this dynamic neighbourhood that has thrived alongside Edinburgh since the Middle Ages as your guide shares fascinating stories of the area's maritime past and its transformation into a trendy, artistic hub, which thrives thanks to the spirits industry. During your tour, try some local snacks to whet your appetite!

  • Lind & Lime Distillery Tour: After soaking in the local atmosphere, we'll head to the Lind & Lime distillery to discover how gin is crafted. Enjoy a welcome gin & tonic on arrival then explore the distillery. Forget about gigantic operations, Lind & Lime is all about carefully crafted local and innovative gin - from making a smooth spirit to selecting a bottle design and wrapping paper that shares the history of the Leith harbour.

  • Bottling your own Gin: As part of the tour, fill and label your very own 5cl bottle of Gin.

  • Tasting & Cocktail Making: The highlight of your experience awaits as you take a seat and mix your perfect Gimlet whilst learning more about the gin making process.
