First heard of the Edinburgh vaults on a TV show called Most Haunted. I wasn’t disappointed. Our guide was a very knowledgeable young man called Stewart and he gave a concise tour of the surrounding area. This was so we would have an idea of how the faults were created over the years due to the valley effect of the area Although the tour wasn’t a paranormal tour, it was still a very scary place to visit Stewart did not spare the details of what the living conditions were like hundreds of years ago in the vaults The Edinburgh Vaults are certainly worth a visit. I would recommend you put it on your list of attractions.

Great way to experience the history of Edinburgh and the lost vaults. Our tour guide was great with a good sense of humour. He took us through the mysterious vault and gave us a great experience and sometimes a scare. Although, for March I would say it was quite a lot of people attending and sometimes felt crowded. I didn't realise when booking that there is a difference in experience with Night time or Daytime tours. Mine was the last Daytime one, which was around 16:30. Not quite sure what I missed, but I felt that wasn't communicated well on TripAdvisor.

Can't recommend this enough for both tourists and locals! James was fantastic with his storytelling and was great at making sure everyone was comfortable. The storytelling was at a great pace and was very informative. The tour of Greyfriars and the South Bridge Vaults was great, I learned lots of new things. The vaults themselves are in very good condition considering their age, and are definitely very spooky. All in all a must do in Edinburgh!
