Combo (Save 5%): Edinburgh Dungeon + Scotch Whisky Experience Tickets

Got the train from east Kilbride with the kids after getting the train it was only a 5 min walk from train station which was good we booked the dungeons online at 20 per person which I thought was great price as both the kids had great time daughter 17 and son 12 it was their first time there was lots of stories and scares very realistic all the staff did great job entertaining all of us afterwards there was great gift shop which is card only which was a shame as we only took cash after the dungeons we went walk loads of shops and restaurants near by a good day was had by all 3 of us and would definitely recommend the dungeons

The actors were amazing !!! They did such a good job making the atmosphere creepy and they used darkness to do some really good jumpscares. They also had very good interactive scenes (the witch hunt/on trial etc) The torturer was also hot as hell

Au travers de cette expérience j'ai découvert toutes les subtilités du whisky écossais. En particulier le lien du whisky avec les différentes régions de l Ecosse. Une très belle expérience

Was very easy to book and use the tickets, no waiting around. Got the tickets via email and text which was handy incase there was no connection or something

Good experience. Having problems securing refunds for 2 concessionary in group who were very ill & unable to attend. Not able to get a reply to my request. Each ticket cost £23. Miss Hare at the whisky experience was very helpful but headout do not respond . Can you help please? A friend recommended the Experience. Can you give us good reason for us to do the same ? Thanks.

If you ever find yourself wandering the dark, suspiciously cobbled streets of and thinking “You know what this day needs? A bit of history, a few jump scares, and the possibility of being publicly humiliated by a medieval judge,” then congratulations — you’ve found the perfect place. Before you even start the tour, the waiting area already sets the tone. It feels like you’ve stepped straight into some creepy underground tavern from the 1700s. Dim lighting, eerie sounds, strange props everywhere, and the constant feeling that someone might jump out at you at any moment. It’s one of those queues where you actually don’t mind waiting, because there’s so much to look at. The atmosphere builds the suspense brilliantly — you’re laughing with the people around you, but also slightly on edge because you know something ridiculous or terrifying is about to happen. Once the show begins, the actors immediately pull you into Scotland’s darker history. The witch trials are both hilarious and slightly concerning — apparently the legal system back then worked like this: “Are you a witch?” “No.” “Exactly what a witch would say.” The plague doctor section is both educational and deeply unsettling. You quickly realise that medieval medicine mostly involved wearing a bird mask, waving herbs around, and hoping nobody coughed on you. Somehow the actor manages to make a global pandemic funny… which is honestly impressive. Then comes the torture chamber, where you learn about all the horrifying devices people used back in the day. The executioner explaining everything with cheerful enthusiasm somehow makes it even worse — like a tour guide who is far too passionate about medieval pain. One of the creepiest moments is hearing the story of Sawney Bean and his cannibal family. Nothing says Scottish family bonding like living in a cave and eating unlucky travellers. It’s disturbing, weirdly fascinating, and told in a way that keeps everyone both laughing and nervously looking around the room. The courtroom show is absolute chaos in the best way. Someone from the audience will almost certainly be declared guilty of something ridiculous and dragged into the spotlight. The judge’s insults and sarcasm make it one of the funniest parts of the whole experience. Overall, the experience is a perfect mix of history, horror, comedy, and brilliantly committed actors who make every room feel alive (or undead). You’ll learn things, you’ll laugh a lot, and you’ll probably question why you voluntarily walked into a dungeon in the first place. ⭐ Verdict: 10/10 would happily be frightened and roasted by medieval characters again. If you enjoy dark humour, Scottish history, and the thrill of possibly being singled out in front of a crowd, this place is an absolute must when visiting Edinburgh. Just remember… if a judge asks you to step forward, stay very, very quiet.
