A Week in Scotland - Group size and Military Tattoo

Cleverpig

My wife and I are about to book A Week In Scotland for July or August of 2025. I have a few questions for those of you who have been on this tour.

How is the Small Group experience different from the Classic group for this tour? What is the typical group size for each?

Everybody raves about the Military Tattoo and Fringe Festival held during August but we are concerned that the crowds will overwhelm the city and make it difficult to enjoy the city, it's attractions and restaurants. I'm sure we would enjoy the performances but, considering the crowds and the $1400 per person premium Tauck charges for the tours that include the Tattoo, we're not sure it is worth it. What is your experience?

The wonderful Balmoral Hotel is the normal hotel for this tour in Edinburgh but during the Tattoo most dates stay at the Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel. The Kimpton looks nice but not in as good a location and rooms appear to be less than half the cost of the Balmoral. If anyone has stayed at the Kimpton, how was it?
