Whispers of the past
Come along this Halloween and join a ghoulish guide for a tour through some of the darker stories and places from Edinburgh Castle's History
The city of Edinburgh is a place where sinister mysteries and strange anomalies haunt our streets, and of course Edinburgh Castle is no exception.
Join our guide for a journey through the grounds of this ancient site to explore the veiled past of Edinburgh Castle, as well as tales of the shadows and whispers which have been left behind...
The tour takes place mostly outdoors and requires visitors to walk on steep and cobbled walkways and several staircases. It also enters dark, enclosed spaces with uneven terrain. Several areas also have low lighting.
Recommended for 18yrs+ due to content.
