Reviews
We were told about the history on why the vaults were built below the south bridge. When you enter the vaults, it gets quite dark, there’s a few green safety lights around but that’s about it, it’s not as brightly lit as you see in the pictures. We’re also told right before entering the vaults that we can request to come out any time we want incase we feel uncomfortable. Inside the vaults you’ll get to see some untouched vaults and also experience how it feels like to be inside back in the day (it’s pitch black). You’ll also get to see a well maintained witchcraft temple, previously used by the Source Coven of the Blue Dragon and also the vault that they initially used but things happened which you’ll find out on the tour. In summary if you’re easily spooked or feel claustrophobic you may want to skip this tour
The itinerary was good, the tour guide gave detailed explanations and also talked about the history of Edinburgh
