Description
Are you interested in the fascinating and important scientific, medical and technological heritage of the city of Edinburgh? From Darwin to Dolly the sheep our app will allow you to explore some of the places associated with major scientific and medical discoveries and personalities, as well as some that are less famous, but deserve to be more widely known. We have sought out stories from the history of science in Edinburgh which will inspire, inform and amuse both visitors and residents of the city.
You can visit the places in our tour in an order that suits you, although the numbering suggests an order that would be convenient for a visitor to the city on foot. We estimate that to see all the places on the tour should take approximately three hours, but you may choose to visit only those which are of special interest to you. You can create your own itinerary based on your interests and the amount of time you have available.
The map will help you find the places and orientate yourself in the city. All the stops on our tour are within walking distance from Waverley station and the city centre, although for a few of the more distant ones some visitors may prefer to use Edinburgh’s excellent bus services.

Very interesting. Works well. Even if you don't use the 'walking tours' through Edinburgh the map will give lots of interesting snippets of history re buildings & people across Edinburgh. Highly recommended for locals & visitors to city. Tours themselves not easy to navigate without knowledge of city so would need to use alongside Google maps, but maybe that will come! Details re miles covered per tour might be helpful, as would suggestion to take buses to get from 'a to b' on some stretches!
