View all →About This Event
The Edinburgh Audio Tour: Monuments, Myths & Mysteries of the Old Town takes place on 3 October 2026 at the Scott Monument. This self-guided audio tour moves from the monument through Greyfriars Kirk and New College to uncover local tales and scandals.
A spire pierces the Edinburgh sky, blackened by centuries of secrets and storms. The city below shudders with history both whispered and shouted. Uncover a side of Edinburgh most never see on this self-guided audio tour. Move from the looming Scott Monument to the timeworn stones of Greyfriars Kirk, through the halls of New College and beyond, chasing the tales that haunt every step. Why did a silent midnight duel near the kirk change the fate of a nation? Which monument conceals the scars of a forgotten rebellion? What odd ritual once echoed through New College’s secluded courtyards? Wander ancient closes and grand crescents. Trace the city’s shadows and scandals in corners tourists rush past. Every moment here tilts between awe and revelation, promising fresh eyes on a living legend. Take the first step into Edinburgh’s tangled heart and let its true story unfold.
