We did the tour on the 05th November and Ignas was great. It was really informative and we both really enjoyed it. The only thing I would suggest it would be nice to end the tour where we started.

After initial confusion over meeting point we joined the tour about 5mins in. From there on, despite wet weather, the guide was excellent and knowledgeable. We were tempted to sneak away because of the weather but persevered and were enthralled as the tour continued and became darker. Greyfriars churchyard was really creepy in the dark, should have thought to take a torch. The last drop might be a double entendre??

Gavin was a brilliant guide who really brought the stories to life. He was friendly, knowledgeable and happy to have a chat with individuals if they had any extra questions. We got some good tips on extra spots to see during our visit!

Great tour! Was very interesting and entertaining. More stories about how people lived in Edinburgh back in the day and how macabre that time was but also some ghost stories. We enjoyed the mixture of history and ghost stories about the dark parts of the City! Gavin was a really good guide! Lovely Scottish accent but still so good to understand and just lovely to be around! Thanks so much!
