Neave is so friendly and amazing story teller, where she made even the most gruelling tales quite funny. Great history and especially in the vaults underground I could really feel the chills. Highly recommend this for anyone visiting Edinburgh!

We enjoyed our tour with Veny. It was equal parts educational and spooky!
We enjoyed the history of Edinburgh that Veny provided, and her method of story telling did create a spooky atmosphere

Not as advertised; really rather boring. The guide had obviously done this many, many times and had no enthusiasm.

Great tour conducted by our very knowledgeable guide, Veni. A fantastic mix of history about the city and ghost stories! We took many photos and believe we even captured one of a benevolent spirit in the vaults!! A great evening rounded off with a complimentary tot of whiskey!!

The tour was extremely interesting and entertaining. Jared is an incredible storyteller and even though we weren't lucky enough to see any ghost (although we didn't really want to meet some of them...) we had goosebumps more than once! We learnt about Edinburgh history through torture, murders, ghost and witches story. A great evening!
