Edinburgh: Avondrondleiding met spoken en geesten + drankje

De avond begint met een wandeling door de donkere steegjes van het oude centrum van Edinburgh, gevolgd door een afdaling naar de Blair Street Underground Vaults. Deze tour eindigt in een met kaarsen verlichte kelder voor een drankje en spookverhalen. De lucht gevuld met geschreeuw en beschimpingen, en een menigte van duizenden die de straf van de twee mannen eist. Sta als lid van de "Edinburgh mob" die ooit langs het Mercat Cross rellen veroorzaakte. Luister naar verhalen over hekserij, martelingen en geesten terwijl je door middeleeuwse steegjes en de Blair Street Underground Vaults loopt. Een gids in een mantel leidt je door donkere grotten en vertelt je ware en gruwelijke verhalen. Als de avond valt, verzamel je in Megget's kelder voor een whisky, een lokaal biertje of een frisdrankje.
