This was such a quick, but very fun and informative tour. Our tour guide, Juniper was perfect! She was super passionate and knowledgeable and had a great character the whole time. I totally recommend this tour even if you don’t know much about witches because you learn a lot about stories back then!

Great way to spend an afternoon wandering around the Royal Mile in Edinburgh learning about the history of witches in Scotland. Our witch was Juniper and as well as being very knowledgeable on the history she was very entertaining as well.

Energetic and dramatic storytelling by our esteemed Juniper made for a compelling afternoon. Very much enjoyed being a part of the show (due in no small part to my own insistence on being the centre of attention.) Couldn't recommend enough.

I really enjoyed this tour, it was fun and very informative. I learned a lot about the history of witches, as well as history of Edinburgh. Our guide was terrific and it also helped us discover some little shortcuts around the city, and hidden places.

Wonderful tour! We were lucky enough to have Juniper as our guide and she was fabulous - extremely knowledgeable, funny and interesting, whilst giving due gravitas to the stories of the women and men who were murdered as witches. The Lost Close was especially fascinating. The tour was also accommodating by allowing us to bring our familiar (dog) along for the trip. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in history, witches, or wanting to see more of Edinburgh.

Witch Hazel was a pure delight! This is one of the best historical tours I have ever been on. She took a somber topic and treated it with reverence and respect, while also adding a touch of levity, magic, and mystery. She was such a fantastic guide. And we lucked out with the weather. This was a treat for my birthday and I can’t think of a better way to have spent my afternoon.
