Learning about the history of this beautiful place was amazing! We opted not to use the headphones, as we felt they were a bit cumbersome and left my spouse and I feeling disconnected from one another. We liked being able to chat about what we were seeing and reading about on the signs. The building and grounds were absolutely lovely inside and out!

    It was wonderful to discover the residence where Mary, Queen of Scots, once lived. The ruined abbey and the beautiful gardens surrounding this palace are steeped in so much history—it’s hard to imagine! It’s a must-see if you’re visiting Edinburgh.

    Loved the free headset with voiceover. I've studied Mary Queen of Scots briefly but didn't know the rich history behind her reign. Reliving the murder of her secretary was mind- blowing!!

    Enjoyed seeing the different rooms and the many many portraits . The audio tour was very good covering a lot of history. The timeline was especially helpful. It was a good value.

    Our group had a fantastic visit. The audio guides were perfect. Just enough information to be educational but not bog down the experience. The staff was extremely helpful.
