About Us

Lammermuir Tours is a family-run, East Lothian-based guiding company specialising in immersive walking experiences across the Lammermuir Hills and surrounding Scottish Borders landscapes. Founded by passionate local walkers with deep roots in the region, we share the hidden paths, rich history, and wild beauty of these rolling hills with visitors from the UK and beyond.

Our tours take you away from crowded tourist spots into the peaceful heart of East Lothian’s upland country – where heather-covered moors meet dramatic escarpments, ancient hill forts, and quiet valleys carved by burns and rivers.

Why Choose Lammermuir Tours

We focus on authentic, low-impact experiences that highlight the natural and cultural heritage of the area while ensuring every guest feels comfortable and safe.

Here are the core benefits our clients value most:

• Expert local knowledge of routes, weather patterns, and hidden viewpoints
• Small groups (max 8–10 people) or fully private options for a personalised pace
• Year-round availability, including spring bluebells, summer heather blooms, autumn colours, and crisp winter walks
• Flexible itineraries – from gentle half-day strolls to full-day challenging hikes
• Emphasis on wildlife spotting (red grouse, curlews, hares, raptors) and historical sites (hill forts, old drove roads, battlefields)

Our Guiding Philosophy

Safety, enjoyment, and respect for the environment guide everything we do. All our walks follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, Leave No Trace principles, and include options for different fitness levels. We provide detailed route information in advance, high-quality maps, and professional first-aid trained guides.

Whether you’re visiting from Edinburgh (just 45–60 minutes away), staying in nearby Haddington, Dunbar, or North Berwick, or exploring the wider Scottish Borders, our tours offer an ideal way to experience the untamed beauty of the Lammermuirs.
