Your expert English-speaking guide leads you through Edinburgh's shadowy Old Town, starting at the gothic St Giles Cathedral where tales of former Scottish parliament drama and notorious prisoners come to life. Walk the ancient closes and wynds where centuries of dark history have left their mark on the city's stones.

Enter the legendary Greyfriars Kirkyard, a 450-year-old cemetery famous for poltergeist activity and body snatchers. Here you'll learn about Greyfriars Bobby, the loyal dog whose statue stands as testament to devotion, while your guide recounts ghostly encounters and supernatural phenomena that continue to this day.
