Ghosts and the paranormal in Edinburgh - Ayrton accompanied us on this nocturnal experience of history and anecdotes with professionalism and passion! A very interesting and engaging tour that put an end to our weekend in Edinburgh… with the promise of returning and definitely! Absolutely recommended 🙏🏽

Ghost tour in Italian - Completely satisfied!!! We booked the tour especially for our 10 and 14 year old boys, money well spent. Our guide Ayrton was engaging, professional and personable. Personally, it allowed me to immerse myself in a historical perspective that I had not explored in depth, despite partially knowing the stories connected to it. The view of Edinburgh from Calton Hill at night would be worth the excursion alone. Highly recommended!!!

Tour on the trail of ghosts among the close the devil's pints and other stories - Let yourself be guided by Aiden and his detailed narration of Edinburgh's dark history. Fun for teenagers too.

I recommend to everyone! - Too satisfied and happy to have taken part in the tour led by Claudio Averna on my first day in Scotland. Sympathy and competence made the impact with this wonderful, mysterious and at times "spooky" city great. Excellent!

Fantastic evocative experience - My boyfriend and I were in Edinburgh in July 2023 and after doing the Higlands and Lochness excursion we also decided to do the Ghosts of Edinburgh excursion with Ayrton. What to say? He was wonderful, super prepared and passionate about his work so much so that he passed it on to all of us who took the tour. He told us very, very interesting stories that personally fascinated me a lot. Edinburgh is a magical, evocative and macabre city and this is a tour that I really highly recommend if you want to discover the true Scottish spirit
