Very knowledgeable and detailed tour of JK and her inspirations. Specifically, enjoyed the possible connection between some of the HP characters and some of the people buried in the cemetery.

Mel did a fantastic job, full of humor but also with a great knowledge about Edinburgh She didn't bore us with dates, but was a brilliant storyteller about Edinburgh in bygone days. We will definitely recommend her.
