I highly recommend you take this tour , to learn the history of Edinburgh's past and to immerse yourself in Edinburgh's historic and abandoned underground.

Carl Griffin

Really eerie tour . Shocking how people used to live. a must do tour .

Els C

Had Jon(n)hy as a tour guide , was so interesting and fun! He managed to sneek in some jump scares but it made the tour even more worth it! Garde l'eau!!

Elena Ego

The tour is a good one but tries to cater to everyone: those who want history and those who want entertainment. Kinda fails at it. The girl and toys story is really out of place.

Anton Kozhin

Book in-advance via web-site. Also a guide book is very interesting. Tour has about 20 participants. Audio guides are available: Spanish, French, German...

Tanya McCorkle

A really worthwhile and interesting tour of Mary King's close. We had a great guide (Daniel) and highly recommend! ????

henrik greger

Really interesting tour of Edinburghs past. Our tour guide Chris T. was an excellent entertainer. Really appreciated his engagement.

George Hunter

I went twelve years ago and then, it was genuinely frightening. Now, whilst educational , it has lost that fear factor and feels like a museum tour , bright lights, projected images and fire exits.

Rick A.

Don't like that it's a tour with the guides acting a medieval person, be prepared to listen to scripted jokes. Do like that this is probably the only chance to see a real untouched medieval street.

Rachel K

I think it’s worth doing once for the oral history. You can really appreciate how Edinburgh was in the past.

We had a great tour guide/ chamber maid. (Katie/Agnus) it is a great look into life in Edinburgh 400 years ago.

Silvia Butta Calice

This is a must see! Book in advance online

Kim Pham

Cool history, but the "thrilling" part of the tour feels really schtick-y. Kind of overpriced.

Dina Androic

Best thing to experience while in Edinburgh!

Aaron Winarski

Good not great. All in all worth the hour tour

Lisa Robshaw

Book in advance to experience this fantastic underground attraction - it gets really busy at peak times (school hols, weekends etc!) Read more

Tim Egan

Tour is well worth the price!

Tyler Tanner

Tourist trap, but a fun one. Despite our burnt out tour guide . Really unique & informative. Made an effort. Would come here again.

Christina Argiropoulou

The guide guy was really funny ❤️

Christopher Vano

Marc Matthews

Great tour guide - Lloyd aka Walter King

Giorgia Boero

Kevin Hill

Learning about how bad it was in the old days was crazy

Anup Tapase

Probably the Most pathetic thing to do in Edinburgh

hub by Premier Inn

Underground tour of Edinburgh 's past

Sotiris Koussouris

Quite nice attraction but a fair price would be around £7. Moreover, tour should conventrate more on the actual close!

Lety Mijares

Great tour , I have a good time

Umut Erozlu

very ıntresting!

Suzy Trew

Very exciting! Spooky but very interesting

Serap Sahin

a must see!! ????

Ting

Skip it. The tour would have been better had they focused more on the history.

Teresa Salazar

Great attraction !!

Laura

Listen out for the voices in the toilets !

Ahmet Peker

Not worth the time and money you give.Ordinary old buildings overstated

Mariam Bazo

Una buena opción para realizar tras esconderse el sol en Edimburgo. Es muy ameno, es divertido y es una radiografía real de la vida en los callejones del Edimburgo antiguo. Nuestra guía Gemma un 10

Olivia Lanchois

Visite guidée très (trop) touristique mais seul moyen d’accéder aux vieilles rues désormais souterraines . Super guide inspiré et jovial, intérêt historique et voyage dans le temps. Incontournable !

Ir Fe

Интересно.Не бойтесь,по первому зову впечатлительных эвакуируют наверх) Но приготовьтесь много ходить.А Наших музейных работников следует в обяз.порядке погружать сюда для"обмена опытом":авось,поможет

Adri

Es interesante, aunque tampoco es para tirar cohetes. Eso sí, la guía que nos tocó (Ainhoa de Burgos) lo hizo genial.

Katya Bakhmetyeva

Потеря времени и 25 фунтов на билеты. Реально не стоит этого! Waste of time and money. It's better to walk around the Royal mile

Ichigo de FAS

Visite des souterrains d’Édinburg très ludique. Amusant et intéressant. Réservez à l'avance sur leur site internet, sinon il vous faudra attendre longtemps : http://www.realmarykingsclose.com/

LoPavlo

No está mal el tour... dentro de que me parecen todos MUY caros , éste es uno de los más curiosos que he visto, gracias al guía, que tenía un punto joputa/cansao/majo que me ha parecido MUY gracioso.

Michael K

Довольно трешовое подземелье. Интересная история . Место обитания духа маленькой девочки (согласно преданиям).

Markus A

Tolle Führung und sehr nettes Personal.

Alex Yu

Если Вы, как и я, ожидали страшное костюмированное шоу с душераздирающими криками замурованных людей, Вы ошиблись. Обычная экскурсия с костюмированным гидом, который рассказывает историю этого места.

Luis Urea

Alexpan

Дороговато, но как все музеи Великобритании сделано качественно.

Barış Can Pelin

Kesinlikle burayı plana ekleyin.

Deberian mejorar la audioguia porque se pierde mucha informacion!
