On Sunday, 10th November, the Royal Mile will be difficult to access due to Remembrance Day, and our ticket office will be closed.
Our site will be accessible from our Courtyard at the top of Warriston’s Steps.
Shrouded in myths and mysteries, The Close and its warren of streets, homes, and passageways offer a truly unique 5-star visitor experience for all education groups. Unlock the secrets of Edinburgh’s only preserved 17th-century street, wander through a labyrinth of Old Town alleyways, avoid the cry of “Gardyloo!”, and discover the stories of the people who lived, worked, and died here.
