We had a superb tour last night with James who was kitted out with full make up and costume and fake arms hanging under his coat. He managed to engage every single one of us with his witty banter despite having a large number of non English speakers in the group. He was incredibly entertaining and informative and had us all in stitches, and even jumping out of our skin on a few occasions with his spooky tales. We’ve been laughing all day about some of his comments. The vaults and the cemetery were incredibly chilling and my 11 year old daughter loved it. The right balance between humour and grisly tales.

Dr Joseph Bell was a very clear and articulate guide. We didn't get as many scary stories as expected, but did get some good bits of history and context. We also missed a couple of specific locations in the graveyard because there was another tour there, which I think should be better coordinated in future as I believe one of them had been investigated by paranormal investigators who actually came up with stuff. We only know this because another person on the tour had been there before and told us about it.

The bus was comfortable, and the commentary extremely useful. We would have preferred for it to run later than 4:30, but I suppose if the demand isn't there... We were able to do the full tour, making notes of what we wanted to see, and then hop on and off to maximise our experience. Great value at £15 for 2 days for us old codgers.

Loved the tour however would like to have been informed that payment required for entry to some castles and not included in the price. Also cash only for one castle, just good luck we had the cash on us. Otherwise great day out.

This is a well delivered tour with interesting additional information that , even as a Scot familiar with the stories of greyfriars bobby and graveyard, I did not know. This made it interesting for both me and my guests
