Auld Reekie Tours

About Auld Reekie Tours

Family owned and operated Underground and Graveyard tours since 1995.

Auld Reekie Tours was formed by Edinburgh entrepreneur Ian McKain in late 1995. The name Auld Reekie translates as “Old Smokey” from when visitors approaching Edinburgh would see the large clouds of smoke coming from the chimneys, then as they got closer the smell became disgusting as the Edinburgh residents used to burn their rotting fruit and vegetation, along with excrement on their fires.

The company is the only one that owns and operates underground ghost tours, unlike his opposition who have to rent/lease their’s. The contents of the “Original” Edinburgh dungeon based in Shandwick Place were bought by the company and remain in storage for future use.

They offer Daily Tours, Nigtly Tours and over 18's only Tour.
