Very funny experience with Lafayette. Our ghost guide who added humor and suspense to the entire story and historical data. Great way to get to know a little bit of the secrets of this beautiful city.

We had a great evening with our tour guide Beth! She set the stage for the vaults and the underground city by educating us on the history of Edinburgh, what led to the building of the vaults and how they were used over time. She was excellent at explaining what life was like in the vaults by delivering entertaining stories and setting the stage for the spooky finales.
I believe no matter where you fall on the spectrum of believing in ghosts, not believing, unsure/skeptical or whatever, you will find this experience to be worth your time!
We had a blast, we learned a lot, we were a bit frightened (not sure I would take kids younger than 14), and left thrilled with our experience and time with Beth!

Our guide, Ryan, was EXCELLENT! He has a remarkable gift for storytelling and engaging his audience! We spent time in both the Underground Vaults and the Graveyard. Although we didn’t have any poltergeist or spirit encounters, the trip was well worth both our time and money.

First time ever doing something like this and I’m so pleased we booked this!! Beth was our guide and she was absolutely amazing, her passion and knowledge of the history and stories of the underground vaults was incredible. The way she describes things, and tells stories, keep you captivated! The vaults were such an eerie experience, I would definitely do this again! Beth, keep doing this job, you have a gift!

Being somewhat sensitive to such things I was concerned this would go one of two ways, 1 nothing would happen it would be underground rooms dark and dank, or two something would happen, it was the second option, as I felt a presence trying to interact with me in the last vault that left me feeling somewhat weakened, Beth our guide was fantastic and reassuring at all times, I spoke with her afterwards to explain what had happened as I didn't want to trigger the tour group, cannot applaud her enough, very professional and informative!
