The underground ghost tour is great for darker Edinburgh history

My wife and I enjoyed the tour. David Rizzio was our tour guide. He played the ‘ghost tour guide’ role very well, shared Edinburgh history (with a flare), and was an excellent story teller.

Well worth your $$

Great tour of the underground, graveyard, and more! David Rizzio was an incredible guide, really brought the history to life. Highly recommended, and if you can, get on David’s tour.

Fun and informative

Guide was fun and informative and really good into the party. It wasn't his shift which he kept going on about and there was a bit of waiting now and again when he went if to get changed however Roxio was great. Would recommend

Spooky tour with Mary Queen of Scots

The ghost tour was well worth the money. One of the highlights of my trip to Edinburgh. Our tour guide, Mary Queen of Scots was amazing. She made the tour even more enjoyable!
