Great Experience, Amazing Family Experience

What should I say? From the beginning our Tour guide 'La Fayete' brought us into an immersive experience constantly making funny jokes while also telling us some interesting facts about the gruesome and terrifying spooky past of Edinburgh. Would really recommend! 'La Fayete' really deserves an Oscar for his great performance👏

Lafayette the tour guide is a ghost boss

Lafayette was our tour guide for the afternoon and he was brilliant. Engaging, funny, and full of freaky facts. Give this guy the best show of fringe award. 10/10 would reccomend

Amazing experience

It was such a fun and welcoming experience! La Fayette is an amazing guide who gives clear and interesting explanations, always with his own peculiar sense of humour and a great touch of sarcasm. The historical information and anecdotes about the different places we visited made the tour both entertaining and genuinely interesting. The atmosphere of the old city at night made it even more special. I definitely recommend doing the late-night tour if you enjoy a mysterious, atmospheric old city and a good dose of humour along the way!
