En un principio reservamos el otro tour de los fantasmas el que no es teatralizado. Pregunte al asistente de civitatis y me contestó que el teatralizado era el de Mary Kings Close por lo que anule el anterior y lo cambiamos por este. Por parte de Rosa Mari todo genial. Lo explico a fenomenal y cuenta muchas historias pero de teatro no hubo nada. De hecho creo que el tour es el mismo que el otro que es mas barato. Me decepcionó.

We originally booked the other ghost tour, the one that wasn't dramatized. I asked the CiVitatis agent, and he told me the dramatized one was the Mary Kings Close tour, so I canceled the previous one and switched to this one. Rosa Mari was fantastic. She explained everything wonderfully and told lots of stories, but there was no drama at all. In fact, I think the tour is the same as the other, cheaper one. I was disappointed.

Me encantó el tour. Muy entretenido aunque breve...me hubiera gustado seguir escuchándola. No recuerdo su nombre pero iba disfrazada del personaje Casandra. Disculpa. En una foto del cementerio parece como una sombra de una calavera. Figaros a la derecha. Translate this opinion into English.

I loved the tour. Very entertaining, though brief...I would have liked to listen to more. I don't remember her name, but she was dressed as Cassandra. Sorry. In a photo of the cemetery, she looks like a shadow of a skull. Figaros on the right. Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad estuvo muy entretenida. Sobre todo sirve para aprender mucho sobre la historia de Edimburgo y sus entresijos ocultos, pero si vas exclusivamente para ver la "ciudad subterránea" pensando que hay varias bóvedas, calles o cosas así, déjame decirte que no. Este tour solo te lleva por una de las bóvedas que tiene un reducido pasillo y un habitación. Es uno de los destinos del tour, pero para nada es donde se basa el tour porque el espacio que se enseña es MUY reducido. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was very entertaining. Above all, it helped you learn a lot about Edinburgh's history and its hidden secrets, but if you're going exclusively to see the "underground city" thinking there are several vaults, streets, or the like, let me tell you, no. This tour only takes you through one of the vaults, which has a small hallway and a room. It's one of the tour destinations, but it's not at all the point of the tour because the space shown is VERY small. Opinion translated. Show original.

El Tour Fantasma fue una experiencia fascinante. Nuestra guía, Casandra, interpretando a Black Agnes, hizo que cada historia cobrara vida con su talento, pasión y carisma. Su manera de mezclar historia y dramatización mantuvo la atención de todos de principio a fin. Sin duda, ella elevó el recorrido y lo convirtió en algo inolvidable. ¡Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

The Ghost Tour was a fascinating experience. Our guide, Cassandra, playing Black Agnes, brought each story to life with her talent, passion, and charisma. Her way of blending history and dramatization kept everyone's attention from beginning to end. She definitely elevated the tour and made it unforgettable. Highly recommended! Opinion translated.

La actividad estuvo muy bien, poniendo en contexto y explicando muy bien cada una de las paradas. Me hubiera gustado más que hubiera puesto un poco más de teatro o drama en la presentación. El hecho de que la guia cuente la historia de una persona real es un punto, merece la pena escucharla. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was very good, providing context and explaining each stop very well. I would have liked a little more theater or drama in the presentation. The fact that the guide tells the story of a real person is a plus; it's worth listening to. Opinion translated. Show original.

La chica que nos acompañó, que representaba al personaje de Alison Pearson era muy agradable y su papel lo representaba estupendamente; nada que objetar, todo genial... lo dice una persona que ha estado tres veces en Edimburgo y es la tercera vez que hago este tour.

The girl who accompanied us, who played the character of Alison Pearson, was very pleasant and played her role wonderfully; nothing to complain about, everything was brilliant... this is coming from someone who has been to Edinburgh three times and this is my third time on this tour.

Hice una de las rutas fantasmas. El personaje de Alice fué encantadora. el contenido lo encontré con falta de datos. Cierto que llevaba dos días haciendo varios Tours y las comparaciones son a veces difíciles de gestionar. Los subterráneos me decepcionaron aunque comprendo la idea de negocio de explotarlos. Repetiría con ellos. Translate this opinion into English.

I did one of the ghost tours. The character of Alice was charming. I found the content lacking in details. It's true that I'd been doing several tours for two days, and comparisons are sometimes difficult to manage. The underground tours disappointed me, although I understand the business idea of using them. I would do them again. Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour en si no estuvo mal, pero repitieron muchas cosas que ya se explican en otros tours, pero hemos de admitir que si que nos explicó algunas curiosidades que estuvieron bien y no sabíamos, sobretodo en el cementerio de Greyfriars. La experiencia en las bóvedas estuvo bastante bien y fue interesante vivirla y sentirla. El miedo que se puede sentir en el tour es muy soportable. Nuestra guía Rose Mary era cercana y graciosa y ayudó a que el tour fuera más agradable! Translate this opinion into English.

The tour itself wasn't bad, but they repeated many things that were already explained on other tours. We have to admit that they did explain some interesting facts we didn't know, especially about Greyfriars Cemetery. The experience in the vaults was quite good and interesting to experience. The fear you might feel on the tour is very bearable. Our guide, Rose Mary, was friendly and funny, and she helped make the tour more enjoyable! Opinion translated. Show original.

Hicimos este tour recientemente y nos encantó. La ambientación fue excelente, pero lo que realmente hizo especial la experiencia fue la chica que interpreta a Geilis Duncan. ¡Estuvo increíble! Supo meternos en la historia, nos hizo reír y participar en todo momento, manteniendo siempre la atención y el misterio. Muy recomendable para quienes quieran conocer el lado más oscuro de Edimburgo. Translate this opinion into English.

We recently took this tour and loved it. The setting was excellent, but what really made the experience special was the girl who played Geilis Duncan. She was incredible! She knew how to draw us into the story, kept us laughing and engaged throughout, while maintaining our attention and the mystery. Highly recommended for those who want to experience the darker side of Edinburgh. Opinion translated. Show original.
