Guide Bio
Stuart is a senior member of Scotland’s very own House of Usher which has been resident in Edinburgh and the areas surrounding the city for nearly 600 years. Among the many gifts his family have made to Edinburgh and Scotland over the centuries are The Usher Hall and The Usher Health Institute in Edinburgh. Stuart therefore has a strong Edinburgh and Scottish provenance which cannot be matched by other Edinburgh Guides.
Stuart is the sole owner of his tour business which he founded in 2012. He has a fair all round knowledge of Edinburgh. Stuart’s walking tour explores the region past and present. He shares his knowledge and answers questions in a conversational, and often humorous, manner.. This makes the whole experience of having Stuart as your guide more enjoyable.
I was lucky enough to be the sole participant of a guided walking tour with Mr Usher this afternoon. What a delight. Very knowledgeable, interesting and quite humorous. Highly recommend his tour. Thank you Mr Usher. I truly enjoyed our afternoon.
