Edinburgh In Motion

The Film Festival Under the Stars event runs for two days only - Friday 13 June Saturday 14 June. Audiences at the Mound Precinct, next to the National Gallery, will be treated to box office hits including Back to the Future and ET. Admission to the screenings is free. The first movie to be screened will be ET, which will be shown at 5.30pm on Friday.

The annual Edinburgh International Film Festival has moved from its traditional slot in August to a new place in the calender this year. The Edinburgh International Film Festival starts on 18 June. The Festival's end credits roll on 29 June. Over 140 feature length films will feature at this year's Edinburgh International Film Festival.

Visitors to the Scottish capital can discover the city's rich heritage in between screenings with a Walk Talk Tour audio walking tour. There are two Walk Talk Tour Edinburgh city guides. Independent travellers listening to the Old & News Town Edinburgh travel guide can hear how the Mound - where the Film Festival Under the Stars is held - came into existence.

The Old & New Towns iPod travel guide begins outside the Castle, Walk Talk Tourists then head into the Grassmarket where notorious nineteenth century murderers once supped, before walking over the Royal Mile to the Mound. The Old & New Towns podcast guided tour takes independent travellers through Princes Street Gardens to St Andrew Square. The Old & New Towns downloadable travel guide concludes in Charlotte Square. To hear an audio sample from the Old & New Towns audio walking tour please click here.

Each Walk Talk Tour mp3 guided tour comes complete with a downloadable map, so you won't miss a thing. No need to feel conspicuous with a guidebook in your hand, or struggle to follow - let alone hear - the man with the umbrella.

The Royal Mile & More mp3 guided tour and the Old & New Towns iPod travel guide cost £5.95 each. Customers purchasing both tours simultaneously will receive a twenty per cent discount. Walk Talk Tours represent excellent value for people travelling in groups and parties. For more information please click here.
