Hidden beneath the Royal Mile lies Edinburgh’s deepest secret: a warren of hidden ‘closes’ where real people lived, worked and died.  For centuries they have lain forgotten and abandoned…

Until Now…

Don’t miss this opportunity to visit this famous Close and one of Edinburgh's premier visitor attractions where you will experience the sights, sounds and maybe even smells of an amazing street that time forgot.  Where everyday people went about their day to day lives and where you can now walk in their footsteps.  Perhaps you'll even get to meet them…

VIEW the workshop of Andrew Chesney, the last resident of Mary King's Close

WITNESS the highs and lows of living in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries

VISIT the home of a grave digger's family to discover the truth about living with the plague

PRE-BOOKING RECOMMENDED!
