For an excellent night out in Edinburgh follow the Edinburgh Literary Pub Tour

The Edinburgh Literary Pub Tour - Pubs

Did you know that Edinburgh has more pubs per square mile than any other city in Europe? The capital is famous - or perhaps infamous - for its drinking dens and the famous literary figures who frequented them. The old taverns and `howffs` around the Grassmarket and the Royal Mile were once the favourite haunts of Scotland`s most respected writers and poets.

"A tour full of charm and wit in keeping with the writers who inspired them."

SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY

It is no exaggeration to presume that a dram or pint of ale has, more often than not, helped to inject a touch of verve, invention and verbal magic to Scottish writing over the centuries. So if you've ever been working and found your mind wandering to your favourite drinking hole - don't worry, you're in good company.
