Edinburgh Hotel Stay & Ghost Bus Tour for 2

An Edinburgh escape with ghosts, legends and a wickedly fun twist 
 
Step into Edinburgh’s shadowy side with a city break that mixes history, humour and a few spine-tingling surprises. This experience combines a 1 or 2-night Edinburgh hotel stay for two with a theatrical Ghost Bus Tour through the city’s most haunted streets and sinister stories.

Climb aboard a classic 1960s Routemaster bus and prepare for a comedy-horror sightseeing experience through Edinburgh’s darker past. Led by a creepy conductor and brought to life with professional actors, eerie stories and plenty of theatrical flair, this tour takes you past some of the city’s most iconic sights while uncovering tales of witches, grave robbers, plague, executions and restless spirits.

Whether it’s a gift for ghost hunters, a fun couple’s escape, a Halloween treat or simply a brilliant way to see Edinburgh differently, this experience brings together sightseeing, storytelling and a memorable city break in one spooky little package.
 
About The Experience
 
Edinburgh is a city made for ghost stories. With its medieval streets, ancient graveyards, dramatic skyline and centuries of dark history, it offers the perfect backdrop for this chillingly entertaining tour.

Your experience takes place on board the Ghost Bus, a vintage double-decker Routemaster with a suitably sinister past. Painted midnight black and styled with atmospheric details, the bus sets the scene from the moment you step on board.

During the 1 hour 15 minute tour, your guide will take you on a journey through Edinburgh’s gruesome history, sharing tales of murders, executions, witch trials, plague victims, grave robbers and spirits that are said to still linger across the city.

You’ll pass famous landmarks including Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, Grassmarket, Greyfriars Kirk, the Old Town, New Town and the Palace of Holyroodhouse, all while enjoying a theatrical mix of comedy, horror and historical storytelling.

It’s sightseeing, but not as you know it.
