Step beneath the Royal Mile for an atmospheric walk through Edinburgh’s hidden closes.
Guided by costumed storytellers, this special tour weaves together folklore and history — from the shape-shifting Glaistig and the tiny coffins found on Arthur’s Seat to tales of headless drummers said to warn of danger.
It’s a vivid look at the myths that helped shape the city’s character, told in the very streets where they took root.
