Grant is the voice of new winter bus tour

Highlights of the journey, run by Edinburgh Bus Tours, include Edinburgh Castle, Dynamic Earth, the Royal Mile and the Scottish Parliament.

Last year, the operation achieved the highest accolade from national tourism body VisitScotland, attaining five stars for excellence in recognition, and it is updating its tour to ensure it continues to draw new visitors.

Lothian Buses Ridacard ambassador Mr Stott said: “I really enjoyed the experience of recording the voiceovers – and while doing so, learnt so many things about Edinburgh that I never knew before.”

Kenny Campbell, Edinburgh Bus Tours manager, added: “It was fantastic to have Grant record this new tour. This new tour is a great way to launch our winter season.”
