In Person

Invisible Cities is a social enterprise that redefines city exploration by training people who've experienced homelessness to become walking tour guides. Guides design and deliver every tour themselves, while the organisation trains them in route design, public speaking, customer service, storytelling, etc. Tours explore areas such as the Old Town and Leith, with particular focuses on crime, drug culture, and the history of women.
