Ah, Edinburgh! They don't call it "The Jekyll & Hyde City" for nothing. During the day, a respectable figure, with its astonishing architecture and wondrous history. But when the sun sets, it tells an entirely different story...
Hear all about the darker history of Edinburgh: murderers, thieves, cannibals, hangings and decapitations, witches, the Plague and streams of human waste. Learn about the most notorious citizens of Edinburgh and how ghost stories are born.
This is not a ghost tour: we don't need costumes or people jumping from behind the corners, Edinburgh's Dark History itself is enough to make your skin crawl. And oh, how we love to share it with our visitors...

5.00What a great way to spend a couple of hours, it’s a well named tour, dark but fascinating history of Edinburgh. This is not a ghost walk, it’s far far better and our guide James was brilliant, knowledgeable and excellent company. Highly recommended
Excellent

5.00Absolutely wonderful, we were in a smallish group which for us was even better. Our guide was James, a very knowledgeable guy, none of the silly histrionics of other tours, just excellent history and facts about the dark side of Edinburgh’s history. Highly recommended
Great experience loved it!!

5.00All seven ladies in their 50s. Loved this tour and very reasonably priced. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and very easy going. Considering it was freezing cold our guide was brilliant. Didn’t feel rushed and came away knowing a lot about Edinburgh and looked out for everything the guide told us for the remainder of our trip.
Excellent tour to learn about Edinburgh's darker history

5.00Highly recommend this tour! Our guide, Joe, was a master storyteller who perfectly blended creepy entertainment with fascinating history. He made the entire experience feel like more than just a tour; it was a true highlight of our visit and we learnt a lot. Booking this was one of the best decisions we made in Edinburgh!
Fascinating tour!

5.00This was a really interesting and well delivered tour covering a lot of Edinburgh's more unsavoury history. Our tour guide Robert was really knowledgeable and friendly and clearly really enjoys running the tour. We have done ghost walks previously which can be a bit silly, but this was all genuine history and was fascinating. Definitely recommend it
Really fun!
