Tour Overview:
Step into the University of Edinburgh, founded in 1583 and recognized as one of the world’s leading universities. With a campus interwoven into the historic fabric of Edinburgh, the university is known for pioneering research, cultural richness, and a long list of distinguished alumni.

Begin at Old College, home to the School of Law and one of the university’s most iconic architectural landmarks. Continue to McEwan Hall, the grand venue for graduation ceremonies, and walk across George Square, the social hub of the central campus.

Visit the Main Library, one of the largest in Europe, and discover how it supports scholarship across disciplines from literature to data science. Your route may also include Teviot Row House, the world’s oldest student union building, and the modern Informatics Forum, a center of excellence in AI and computer science.

Along the way, your student guide will share stories of Edinburgh’s notable alumni—from Charles Darwin and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to Alexander Graham Bell and JK Rowling’s literary ties to the city. You’ll also hear about student life traditions, such as the annual Beltane celebrations, the Edinburgh Fringe student performances, and the spirited academic societies that enrich campus life.

Whether you are inspired by history, science, or the arts, this tour provides an immersive glimpse into the University of Edinburgh—where centuries of tradition meet the innovations shaping tomorrow.
