Truthfully ever part of our visit was amazing from the staff to the actors to the rooms made for the experience. The staff was funny and helpful for every step of the way. The experience was immersive and the rooms were so well done! Some of the effects i never encountered before and it was so fun never knowing what to fully expect. The actors were amazing and never broke character! It was fun and spooky and definitely worth checking out! The sets and people there are amazing!!!

Very entertaining, the whole experience was well worth the money paid. The guides were excellent, funny, and knowledgeable about all aspects of Scotlands macabre past and the audience participation was first class. This experience is well worth a visit, I would recommend this venue. The staff are very friendly and entertaining.

The Edinburgh Dungeon experience is a must do! Our group absolutely loved it. Each part of the tour is very well executed and planned out. If you like spooky things, this is the experience for you. They make it very interactive and engaging. Highly recommend and very worth the money. Def book in advanced because they do fill up.

    I had visited before but it was my daughter's first visit and she was picked as Sweaty Betty - she thoroughly enjoyed this and the Judge was particularly excellent in her role. We had a really enjoyable visit, with staff engagement making us laugh and scream in equal measure. I would certainly return to the Edinburgh Dungeons.

    We had an excellent time in the dungeon. The staff were really engaging and made it so fun and scary at times. It is excellent value for money and a great way to spend an hour and a half. You also learn some local history.

    I thought the actors were very good although they did speak too quickly so itcwas difficult to follow the storyline. Special effects very good.
