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!

Very short and sweet tour. Tells you everything about scotch whiskey. Staff are very cordial. We reached 30 mins late but we were easily accommodated in the next tour. At the end of the tour, you also get to taste some single malt and you can take the glass home as a souvenir.

Informative and humorous tour of the castle and other noteworthy places along the Royal Mile. Our guide also admirably navigated the crowds to get us entry tickets, and pointed out further places to explore in the castle after the tour. Great experience!

I really enjoyed this tour. It was engaging and well designed, with impressive digital elements that made the experience both informative and entertaining. The tour appeals to all the senses—you can see, smell, learn about, and, of course, taste the whisky. The only small downside was that by the end of the tour I had developed a bit of a headache, probably from all the sensory stimulation and whisky tasting. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend it, especially to anyone interested in Scotch whisky and its history. 🥃😊

We loved the tour of the castle and although Vox Tours was a relatively new player in the market we found our guide to be incredibly informative and just an all round nice fella. As 6 other tourists didn't show for the alotted time, we ended up being the oly people on the tour, so everything was at our pace. We equally loved the dungeons, although a little disappointed that the 'ride' wasn't in operation.
