About This Event

A black Gothic spire needles the Edinburgh sky, and the Scott Monument casts long shadows over stories that refuse to stay buried. This self-guided audio tour leads through the Old Town and beyond, pairing famous sights with overlooked corners like Moubray House and the National Archives of Scotland. Hear the city speak in rebellions, scandals, political battles and forgotten moments most visitors walk straight past. Fifteen stops across the historic centre, roughly ninety minutes at your own pace, with narration playing as you walk. Your phone is the guide, so start whenever you like and pause for coffee whenever you want.
