In front of St Giles’ Cathedral, we explore this area’s role as the political, religious and judicial heart of Edinburgh, where power and punishment were closely linked.
Once a centre of public justice, this was the site of punishments and executions. Here we discuss social control and the harsh realities of the medieval penal system.
These narrow alleyways were home to the poorest communities. They reveal the brutal living conditions, disease and superstition that shaped medieval Old Town Edinburgh.
A historic space associated with surveillance, punishment and the persecution of alleged witches, offering insight into fear, superstition and repression.
A bridge built over ancient burial grounds and surrounded by legends since its construction. We explore its tragic beginnings and the superstitions that still surround it.
Here we delve into the stories of the South Bridge Vaults, linked to smuggling, secret medical practices and unexplained phenomena that continue to attract paranormal investigators.
The tour concludes in Edinburgh’s most famous cemetery. We uncover the stories of grave robbers, the tragic fate of the Covenanters and the terrifying legend of Bloody Mackenzie, one of Scotland’s most feared spirits.

Beautiful evening tour, I recommend everyone to do it
We took the tour with Dominga, a very good, engaging guide, told us many episodes of the most mysterious and disturbing history of Edinburgh with competence and narrative ability. The tour ended in Greyfriars Cemetery, which is open all night, with a creepy atmosphere. A different way to learn about the history of a must-see city.
