This is Edinburgh's original ghost tour. We've been wandering the streets of Old Town Edinburgh since 1984. Your guide is Alexander Clapperton (deceased), a one time cemetery director. He will blend history with humour and facts with fables, while our creation - the "jumper-ooter" provides guaranteed ghastly appearances. Explore the cobbled passageways around the Old Town and hear tall tales from the city’s dark past on this light-hearted outdoor 90 minute tour. Our tours operate outdoors through rain, snow, lightning and even sunshine, so please dress appropriately and comfortable footwear is recommended.
  • Our famous 'Jumper-ooters'
  • Gratuities

Departure Point

352 Castlehill, Edinburgh EH1 2NF, UK Meet outside the Witchery Restaurant, 5-10 minutes before the start of the tour.

  • Cadies & Witchery Tours, Edinburgh, United Kingdom
    Number 84 West Bow, down near the bottom of the not-so-sunny side of picturesque Victoria Street in Edinburgh's Old Town, is an unassuming address amongst the majesty of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. In the shop today, you can find a cornucopia (we don't use the word lightly; we looked it up and everything) of ghoulish and fantastical stationery, drinkware, ornaments, soft furnishings, original artwork and art prints, greeting cards, chess sets, and unique oddities hard to even describe. In 2015 we also became (possibly) Scotland's smallest museum, when the shop became host to a calling-card case made from the skin of the notorious 19th-century "body-snatcher" (actually murderer), William Burke. We can't sell you that (mainly because even the experts on Antiques Roadshow couldn't give us a valuation of it) but we have produced a rather spiffing souvenir newspaper taken from our own vaults and covering Burke & Hare's trial in some detail.

The tour guides were fantastic, the group was a small size and the tales were wonderful. My kids (7 & 10) loved it and I thought it was absolutely amazing. Great for some light gore and cool and creepy Edinburgh history
