Traveler reviews
Fun tour of the vaults!
The vaults tour is a great way to spend an hour or so in Edinburgh. Ally was our guide and she was brilliant - she explained all the history really well, making it engaging and interesting and a good bit of humour to top it off! Overall it was a really enjoyable experience, whether you believe in anything paranormal or not, I would highly recommend it!
Fun and Spooky
It was a fun evening out. Darren was a good guide and keep the tour fun and light. The vaults gave a few screams and jumps during the tour, which added to the enjoyment of the experience.
Thank you Ally!
We had our tour with Ally and it was amazing! Thank you Ally!
Jordan was an incredible story teller
The tour was amazing, the buildings, the vaults, everything scenic, but the guide - Jordan- he was absolutely incredible! The way he brought to life stories from the past and made you feel like you were right there, in the story, was incredible.
This was a great tour...
This was a great tour that offered some history of vaults that were recently rediscovered and some haunting stories and beliefs associated with them. The tour guide Louisa was really engaging the entire time. Highly recommend!
