Hi, my name is Kat - I am originally from the North East of Scotland. I relocated to the city of Edinburgh 10 years ago to study at University. I have a degree in Tourism Management and focused my university thesis paper on Scottish film sites, and in particular, Harry Potter and Outlander.

In 2018 I started my own tour company - Travel Kat Tours. We specialise in small group and private tours around the U.K. leaving from Edinburgh. My Walking Tour in Edinburgh is one of the top rated experiences on Airbnb and we have taken over 3000 clients on our tours since our launch in 2018. I run Edinburgh history, folklore and Harry Potter Tours. I also have a Scottish Witchcraft Tour that is very popular.
I have 5-star rating reviews and thrive upon showcasing our beautiful country.

During lock down I undertook further tour guide training by completing a North East Scotland: History, Landscape & culture certificate from the University of Aberdeen. As a native Scots speaker (Doric) I like to promote my language and heritage to visitors and through writing. I thrive on conducting research, reading and writing and producing videos on Scotland.

When I am not showing guests around Edinburgh, I also maintain a travel blog and try to explore as much as I can. I have been lucky enough to have visited over 50 countries, but I still maintain that Scotland is my favourite!
