Itinerario
Punto d'incontro del tour - Il suono lontano di una corda tirata forte, il raschiamento di un piede dietro di te, una folla che abbaia per il sangue in lontananza. Esplorate la fioca e torbida Edimburgo e scoprite i personaggi sgradevoli che occupavano queste strade.
Vivi l'atmosfera inquietante e spaventosa delle caveau della metropolitana di Blair Street, a cui Mercat Tours ha accesso esclusivo. Attenzione, però, perché forse quei sussurri che senti non sono solo nella tua testa... Potrebbe avere a che fare con il cambiamento di temperatura. O il buio perpetuo. O le stanze sempre più piccole, che si estendono oltre il debole fascio di una torcia o di un luccichio di candela. Qualunque sia il motivo, c'è qualcosa di inquietante nei caveau sotterranei di Blair Street - e il tuo maestro Narratore ti svelerà le storie inquietanti in questo tour sotterraneo dei fantasmi di Edimburgo.
Una passeggiata attraverso ombreggiate chiusure al cimitero di Canongate vi porterà al luogo di riposo dei personaggi più famosi di Edimburgo, molti dei quali hanno incontrato una fine tragica e raccapricciante. Adam Smith, il padre dell'economia; David Rizzio, confidente di Maria, regina di Scozia; e James Douglas, III marchese di Queensberry — il famigerato cannibale del Canongate.

We enjoyed the tour and the guide.
A journey back to times that we can actually hardly imagine today. Despite the fact they only lie some centuries back. Very good story teller. At the beginning unfortunately a constant on and off headphone connection depending on how and how far away the guide stood. Thank you for an impressive lecture on Edinburgh history.
Michael was a fantastic tour guide, with a very contagious energy. He presented both facts and mystery with an expert proficiency, and very quickly became a highlight of our time in Edinburgh. Thanks Michael!
It was great to have access to parts of the city that are otherwise inaccessible. Info provided on the tour was interesting.
Michael was the best, I wish he had more stories to share but we had the best time. I just wished that we had ended the tour where the underground vaults were. Nevertheless it was great.
Worth doing a tour with Mercat! The ghost tour we did with Michael was very animated and great combo of history and spooky stories. Would do another with them again!
I loved it! Michael was excellent, he managed to merge the dramatic and the historically practical and accurate, it made me forget the pouring rain. 100% recommand
Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We’re delighted you loved the experience and that the combination of Edinburgh’s dramatic and historical stories made the tour enjoyable despite the rain. We really appreciate your 100% recommendation! Mercat Tours
The Mercat "Doomed, Dead, and Buried" tour was fantastic, largely thanks to our amazing guide, Ash. She strikes the perfect balance between atmospheric storytelling, sharp humor, and pure entertainment. Her cackle echoing through the underground vaults is something we won't soon forget! Do yourself a favor and request Ash for your Edinburgh vault experience. 10/10!
Thank you for your fantastic feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed the Doomed, Dead and Buried tour with Ash. It's wonderful to hear that her storytelling, humour and ability to create the perfect atmosphere made the experience such a memorable one. We appreciate your recommendation and your kind words about Ash. Mercat Team
It was pouring rain out and about 45 minutes of it was outside. Unfortunately they were unwilling to reschedule this for us as they were unable to help the rain. Unfortunately neither could we so we missed out
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear you decided not to join the tour. As our tours operate year-round in all weather conditions, we do advise guests at the time of booking and on our website to dress appropriately for the weather, as Scotland's conditions can be unpredictable. While our Storytellers do their best to find shelter where possible, some outdoor walking is an essential part of the experience. We appreciate that the weather on the evening of your tour was particularly wet. However, as your request was made at the tour departure time, we were unable to offer a transfer or refund in line with our booking policy, which requires at least 24 hours' notice. We understand this was disappointing, but we do need to apply the policy fairly and consistently for all guests. We hope you'll have the chance to experience one of our tours on a future visit to Edinburgh. All the best, Mercat Team
An excellent tour. The guide was an absolute mind of information. A good size of group with about seventeen of us so not too large. Easy to find our starting place and the headphone sets meant that even in the noisy royal mile we could all hear the guide easily without straining. A real plus for those of us with not 100% hearing. The guide, Nicola, was engaging and a proper actress ( in the nicest of ways!). She held our attention with bloodthirsty tales of execution and torture around the sites we visited. The vaults were great. You really expected to hear strange noises or see things but sadly this was not to be. I did expect some outside influence from colleagues for effect but this didn't happen and was not needed. Your imagination did the work for you. Around the two hour mark was excellent value for money. I heard the minimum age was five years for the tour. I thought this a little young for the tales told but everybody sees thing differently. All in all a great way to spend an evening in Edinburgh.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're delighted you enjoyed your Small Group Edinburgh Underground Vaults & Graveyard Ghost Tour with Nicola. It's wonderful to hear that her storytelling, knowledge and theatrical flair helped bring Edinburgh's darker history to life. We're also pleased that the audio equipment helped you comfortably follow the tour, especially along the busy Royal Mile. We appreciate your comments regarding the tour content and age suitability, and we're grateful you took the time to share your experience. It's fantastic to hear that the atmosphere of the vaults and the stories made for a memorable evening in Edinburgh. Mercat Team
