Itinerary

1. Royal Mile

Combining history, humour and horror, the tour lasts approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Each guide is a local expert on Edinburgh's fascinating and horrifying history, with their own unique style and delivery so no two walks are ever the same.

Duration: 30 mins

2. South Bridge- Edinburgh

This tour ventures into the most haunted section of Edinburgh’s legendary Underground City, where a population once lived in utter misery. Black as Satan’s jammies, with a fascinating history to match, these vaults were forgotten for centuries and only recently unsealed. Enter the part of the South Bridge Vaults known as Damnation Alley. With good reason. These dark tunnels are stalked by a malevolent presence called the South Bridge Entity. Can cause physical and mental distress. You join us at your own risk.

Duration: 60 mins
