My mother's name was Margaret, and in recent years I found St Margaret was her 24th Great Grandmother. I planned a visit to Edinburgh on my way to the Platinum Jubilee. Mom wanted to see lots of pictures, then she died eight months before my trip from the Pandemic. My Scottish visit became one of mourning and remembrance. I stopped to pray at St. Margaret's Chapel and was so awed all I could do was thank the lord for my mother. I arrived in Scotland one year ago today, and then this video popped up in my recommendations. 🤎🏰 👑

Thank you for providing such an outstanding tour of this remarkable historical castle, Margaret! I'm a 14x great grandson of King James IV in several lines. I don't believe that I'll ever be able to see the castle in person, but I feel as though I have been there by way of your thorough and very informative video.

Genuinely one of the most pleasant voices I've ever heard. And extremely informative!

I used to do annual inspections of the gas network inside the castle. So I got to access to the whole place and the guide from Historic Scotland took me to other parts to show me as both of us loved our history. The place is truly amazing

Once again Margaret knocks it out of the park! What a superb tour! Thanks so very much, I enjoyed learning from you immensely.

I absolutely love Edinburgh Castle. It’s so atmospheric and the history and views are incredible. Thank you so much Margaret 🙂👍

I love it! You've made me want to go back to Edinburgh.

Thank you for this video, Margaret! You do such an incredible job telling the stories of these incredible places! I hope you have one for Balmoral and Stirling Castle in the near future!

Such a great virtual tour of the beautiful Scotland and Edinburgh Castle, Margaret! Always a good job.❤

I am so glad to have discovered this channel. Not only have I learned a lot, but I love the sound of your calming voice. Ty

Margaret was our guide for the Royal Mile free tour. She was lively and an excellent storyteller . Great to see her here since we weren’t able to visit Edinburgh Castle due to King Charles’ visit.

Hi! I loved your video❤️ I have spent a week in Edinburgh and inverness this last July and it was an amazing time! I hope we can go back some day because there are so many places to visit in Scotland! Thank you 🍀🍀🍀

Absolutely great video. Thanks so much. It, of course makes it all the more pleasant, to listen to such a nice voice. I'm off to watch the other videos you've made.

Really excellent documentary and overview; she goes into good detail but at a steady pace easy to absorb and it has definitely encouraged me to visit Edinburgh Castle some day in the near future; Thank you

Margaret, Thank you for another excellent video. Love all the Information that you supplied about Edinburgh Castle. Do much knowledge.

Throughly enjoyed this . Thank you.

This is outstanding . Thx you very much for this virtual tour ❤Love it .

Your voice is a joy to listen to .

Hi,, awesome live history video I enjoyed it. I went to Scotland in 1996. I went to the city of Glasgow Scotland. Very beautiful historical city. How are you? I'm doing well. Have a great day see you next video greetings from Canada 😊

Brilliant video. Visited 2023 November and we had only 1 day in Edinburgh. We did the bus tour, but for the same 4 hours, it looks like a thorough castle tour would have served better. Cheers from LaLa Land, California.

First visit here. Brilliant video. Edinburgh Castle is on my doorstep. I feel a visit coming on. 👋👋

Thanks for the tour. You did a very good job sharing history of the castle.

Lovely to hear your beautiful voice again. Your tours are always great.

This was fascinating from start to finish. PS -- My mother's name is Margaret, Glasgow born and bread.

Absolutely WONDERFUL tour, Sinead! Thank you for doing this for us!!❤🇺🇲🇬🇧

Well that was a surprise about the usage of the rabbits foot. Fortunately your humour is still intact. Another wonderful tour. With grandparents from Scotland whose brogue was so thick as a kid i wondered what language they actually spoke. The WWI hero Haig was given to my father as his middle name in honour. This was another great tour, Margaret, even without any medieval fire extinguishers. I guess the Scots were more diligent! I also thought the use of photos was an appropriate and respectful way of allowing us to see in where cameras cannot go. Good choice. Fun and informative as always.🎉🎉🎉

So fascinating!! Thank you for this 🇨🇦❤️

I love Scotland lovely place Tessa Edinburgh castle and all castles are .wish I lived. In one Tessa or many castles all buildings are special to me tess❤

Love this video!!. Thank you Margaret!! I love this great old castle. and love to visit it. ❤❤

Oh my goodness 😱 how stunning!!! I’m in Australia and the oldest thing here are rocks

Thank you Margaret!! Amazing!

I have visited here , this info is gold , I will b returning soon , but much enriched with well delivered info , thank you ,

This was brilliant. Thank you so much..😊

Beautifully exploring 👌

I loved this video. I didnt know any of its history and had only seen pictures of the cadtle from the outside.

Great tour Margaret very interesting!

Robert the Bruce is a long distant cousin of mine as well as king Henry the 8th. Thank you for this

Loved the tour! Thank you!❤

I got interested with Scotland history during Robert Bruce thanks to historical romance series of author Monica McCarty where she used historical events and figures(like Thomas Randall, Earl of Moray, etc) of that time for her books. Amazing castles. Hope to visit them in the near future.

Love these videos. Margaret rules! From Iran.

Amazing tour!

Another great history presentation…👍🏼

Very interesting I want to go to see th castle .

Great job. One thing though, I am pretty sure the "L" in Kirkcaldy is silent. We have always said it as "Kir-kawdy", accent on the "kaw".

Thank you for sharing. My first name is Margaret.❤

Auntie Margaret, RIP.

Not forgetting the memorial to Ensign Ewart who captured the French Eagle at the Battle of Waterloo.- at the top right of the Esplanade.

Thanks!

Thank you for the lack of bagpipes. I'm serious. I'm of Scottish heritage and have had more than enough of bagpipes.

My dream to go to Edinburgh😍

👍👍

My Sister was married in St Margarets Chapel over 40 years ago.

You have a beautiful voice ❤

💯👍👍

What is "virtual" on this video tour? 🤔

One can spot a genuine medieval portcullis by the Murder Holes in the arch above, through which arrows would be shot and boiling pitch, water and excrement would be tipped on the invaders attempting to enter.

Do not forget the Nova Scotia Plaque on the esplanade!

Enjoyed the tour very much. One error I noticed near the end which refered to the British crown. There is no such crown. There are two crowns . Scotland's and England's. Neither were abolished and still exist as do the two sovereign states.

This sadly got Mary killed Tess but Liz did not want to kill Liz was forced to by her party Tess .Mary said she will never live tess❤

Nice tour, but all the building's stones need to be cleaned of the smut and mold. It would be so much nicer if the stones were cleaned.

All buildings are lovely and some people . Mary queen of Scott's was used by people and forced to marry her second husband who killed Mary first husband did she know this not sure tess

She reminds me of Amy adams

Voice is too soft:(

Well.....I have a definite feeling of dread.

Imagine paying a fortune to watch the Tattoo and find that your seat is high up, enough for your panic attacks to kick in to high gear as all you see is how high up off Princes Street you are! 😱 P. S. In the word KIRKCALDY, the " L" is silent effectively pronounced " Kirk_Awww_deh

Moray is pronounced Murray.

I have many Scottish ancestors who ended up in the Americas. My original family surname was probably Ross, we have connections to the Munro and Lindsey clans. How my ancestors ended up in England again later don't know. Strange world. I am a proud English man now. I find Scottish history strange. Andrew Murray is the real hero of the Scottish wars and they would never have won the battle of Sterling bridge without him. Bruce and Wallace were of Norman origins and the wars to them l Believe to them were a land grab. Many Scottish Lords had land on both sides of the boarder. There is a good book called 'Freedoms Sword' by Traquair. Bruce was also a murderer.

Its hard to understand you as it seems like you are whispering

Es ist schade das man es nicht auf Deutsche Sprache lesen kann oder hören kann .sehr schade ,!, !

I just had to stop listening. Although the subject and informatiom are interesting, the narration was very difficult to listen to.

That was amazing! Thank you
