Descend into the hidden Blair Street Underground Vaults on a guided experience with Mercat Tours and uncover a darker side of Edinburgh’s history.
Once home to criminals, the city’s poorest residents and those living on the fringes of society, these underground vaults gained a reputation for mystery and unexplained happenings. Your guide will lead you through the winding closes of the Old Town before taking you beneath the streets into the atmospheric vaults themselves.
Hear real documented stories of crime, hardship and survival, with no staged scares or theatrical effects—just authentic accounts from Edinburgh’s past. As you explore the dimly lit chambers, you may notice the eerie silence and sudden cold spots that many visitors still talk about today.
Your discount will be applied once you have selected the date, time slot, and number of guests within the booking portal.
