Full description
Embark on a fascinating journey through the dark recesses of Edinburgh's history with our 'Mysteries, Witchcraft and Murder' tour. Although the city may look spectacular today, its past was marked by tumultuous times and shocking events.
On the tour, we will explore one of the cemeteries in the heart of the city, where the stories of Edinburgh's most famous serial killers, William Burke and William Hare, come to life. The Black Death left a deep scar on the Scottish capital, and during the tour, you'll discover how the city coped with this devastating pandemic.
We'll climb to the top of Calton Hill, a place that once witnessed the burning of witches and warlocks. There, we will unravel the reasons why someone might have ended up at the stake. Today, Calton Hill is home to a number of historic buildings and monuments, such as the Observatory, the Nelson Monument and the Scottish National Monument, also known as "Edinburgh's Disgrace".
Edinburgh has been shrouded in mystery and mysticism for centuries. On this tour, we will unearth legends, ghost stories and much more.
Some of the places and themes highlighted on the "Mysteries, Witchcraft and Murder" tour include:
South and North Bridge: Tour these bridges that have witnessed Edinburgh's tumultuous history.
The Black Market in Corpses: Explore the dark practice of the corpse trade in the city's past.
Serial Killers: Delve into the macabre stories of William Burke and William Hare.
Witch Trials and Witch Burnings: Immerse yourself in the era of witch hunts and executions.
The Black Death: Find out how the city coped with the devastation of this historic pandemic.
Old Calton Burial Ground: Explore this ancient burial ground steeped in history and mystery.
Canongate Kirkyard: Immerse yourself in the charm of this historic cemetery.
Prepare for a unique experience as you unravel Edinburgh's darkest secrets. Remember that our private tours offer you the flexibility to customise your experience to suit your interests. Discover the more enigmatic side of Edinburgh with us!
