The company’s website says: “It consists of a magical, sociable, fun and cultural 4.5-mile running tour around Edinburgh, with lots of stops for information and photo opportunities. The tour finishes off with a glass of prosecco back at The Villager, where you are more than welcome to stay for food and more drinks.

“We keep our groups small and personal, there are limited places per tour, so grab your friends and come and join the fun.”

The prosecco tour costs £22 per person and includes a guided running tour, photos and a glass of prosecco at the end of the run.
