The tour was a lot of fun; the guide did a great job of making it interesting throughout the tour and shared a lot of good information about the city and it's history. Would definitely recommend to others - fun way to spend an evening in old town.

The tour is great, it’s the only one to have access to cool places, but the guide Ryan is the one who makes it amazing ! He gives life to the stories and makes the whole tour instructive, fun and spooky.

As the only tour with access to the Covenanters Prison in Greyfriar's Kirkyard, this is THE ghost tour to do in Edinburgh if you are a lover of the paranormal & dark history. Xander was an incredible and engaging guide; he is a talented storyteller as well as passionate & knowledgeable about the history. He even let me ramble at him about ghosts for a bit after the tour. If I'm ever in Edinburgh again, I would absolutely re-book this tour just for the thrills, chills, and unprecedented access to some of the city's most haunted spots!

We had a great time with Ben! He made sure that everyone was safe, and he was very engaging with his storytelling. We loved having access to the vaults and graveyard that others didn’t have access to, and it was a wonderfully fun experience with our two teens.

With this being the only tour to go into the site of the Covenanter’s prison, it was a must-do for me! Sarah was our guide and she kept us enthralled throughout the entire tour. Her stories were engaging and spine-tingling. She was so personable and charismatic, she made the places on the tour resonate with history and tragedy. I would love to tour with her again!

Our tour guide Natalie was excellent - a really good sense of dramatics, and a lot of interesting knowledge. It was great to see parts of the city not usually accessible.

Ryan was the absolute best tour guide! Even though it was the last tour of the night he was super energetic and entertaining and overall made it an amazing experience. He was also super knowledgeable about the gory history of edinburgh while being hilarious at the same time. I would 100% book another tour with Ryan!
