The Scoth Whisky Experience was our first stop of the day and it was incredible! The tour was fun and informative, our guide Victoria was a delight, and the final stop (not gonna spoil it in a review) was a CAN NOT MISS! 100% recommend! I will say the meeting location listed in the app was incorrect and you meet inside the building not out front. The Edinburgh Dungeon was a wild time! I went to this attraction 20 years ago and it has completely changed from what it was back in the day and because I didn't look into it and expected it to just be the same two decades later, I inadvertently took my best friend to a scare experience (and she is not a fan of scare experiences) but thankfully she did enjoy herself (which is why I am able to write this today!) And I had a blast! The scare actors were incredibly talented and the scares were absolutely earned! And we both appreciated that there was no touching. That's always a point of contention here in the states with grabbing. 100% worth doing if you like history and scares!

The castle's amazing history is well known. But the brilliant guidence fro Melanie (she is Canadian I think) took the experience to a whole other level. Best tour guide Ive ever had anywhere

Absolutely — I’d keep it genuinely enthusiastic but centre it on Bertie’s experience, since that’s the bit that was genuinely five-star for you. We visited the Edinburgh Dungeon for my son’s 9th birthday, and it was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Edinburgh – he absolutely loved it! The actors were brilliant throughout and really threw themselves into their roles. There was a great balance of humour and scares: funny enough that we were laughing a lot, but with just the right amount of creepiness and jumpy moments for a nine-year-old who enjoys being scared! We also really liked the way the experience moves you from room to room, with each one telling a different part of Edinburgh’s darker history. It felt much more immersive than simply walking around an attraction, and the interaction with the actors made it especially memorable. A really fun, theatrical experience and a fantastic birthday treat. My son was still talking about it afterwards, which probably says it all!

We were a group of seven made up of family and friends some from overseas. Two of our group were "selected" during the tour which added to the hilarity. The whole experience was excellent and we will certainly be back next year.
