Excellent Very informative. Lots of history Wouldn’t recommend for small children because of the darkness

This is a short tour and conveniently located to include on the same day as a visit to Edinburgh Castle. Our guide, Veni, was knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. She explained the origin of the vaults and then we went down into them. She explained what was in the vaults over time. The lighting is quite low and the floor uneven so it may not be suitable to people with walking issues. It is a fascinating part of Edinburgh history.
