So, we booked our mystery trail over a weekend in Edinburg and were given a pickup point. Went there and no one was able to deliver the package. No one knew what we were looking for. After some discussion we were asked to go to another place (up on the hills and not planned in our trip). Will not recommend because every minutes count in a week end. If your failure cost me time - your bad

I love the small streets and the whole vibe of Edinburgh. I kinda feels like the city is a perfect setting for a historical crime. And this self-guided mystery walk was just PERFECT for this. I did the Royal Mile mystery hunt from Solve a Mystery and I REALLY loved it! I highly recommend for all true crime history nerds like me!
