Do you want to do the best Tours in Scotland? Well this is your place. After several years working in the tourism sector for leading companies in different locations in the United Kingdom, I decided to embark on this adventure and create “We Are Scotland”, from where we carry out walking tours of Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow. This project is born from work, humility and experience in order to make people who visit Scotland feel part of its history and its legends, together with a team of experienced guides passionate about history who will make you want to return. to this wonderful country.
Discover the alleys where Edinburgh residents lived in the 17th century, but above all, learn how they died during the Black Death, and how doctors tried to cure it with bird masks.
We tell you about the mysteries of the South Bridge , where whisky was illegally distilled, but above all, corpses were hidden . We will talk about corpses, but about the black market in corpses in the 19th century and the serial killers William Burke and William Hare. We will visit the Old Calton cemetery .
We will go up to Calton Hill , where we will talk about something we are passionate about: the burning of witches and wizards , and we will see if any of those who take this tour would have ended up at the stake. On Calton Hill, we also have the observatory, the Nelson monument and the national monument of Scotland , they are symbols of the city, but here they are called the shame of Edinburgh.
We will walk through a passage, Jacob's Stairs, which was used as a secret passage during the black market in corpses.
All this mystery and mysticism that has surrounded Edinburgh for decades attracts hundreds of tourists to the city wanting to know what happened in these centuries. Are you going to miss it?
On this free tour we will visit:
For groups of more than 6 people, even if bookings are made separately, if you come together you will need to pay the guide £10 per person at the start of the tour.
We will meet at 369 High St (Royal Mile) next to St. Giles Cathedral with BLACK UMBRELLA
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
