Emily made the tour one to remember with her story telling skills! Considering the rain, Emily kept us well entertained on the underground tour, her knowledge and the way she told the folklore stories and history of Edinburgh made for an amazing time. Thank you!
Really great tour and fantastic guide! Really interesting.
