Interesting history. It is not scary at all. It got a little cheesy at times and if you are claustrophobic you might have trouble with some of the areas. Other than being disappointed it was not scary I thought it was pretty cool (and sad) to see how some people lived in that time period. It is a real street - or close - from history, which is abundantly cool.

The haunted tour is available after hours in August, and I really enjoyed it. The tours run on time and are pretty affordable.

He visitado y trabajado como limpiadora y como guía turística de los turistas españoles y les puedo asegurar que es un lugar con una altísima energía. Una de las atracciones cinco estrellas de Edinburgh. No es una atracción para niños, personas mayores con movilidad reducida, es una atracción histórica y con algunas dosis de miedo, depende mucho del guía. Para mi tiene mucho encanto por las muchas experiencias que guardo del lugar, lo recomiendo a los que no tengan claustrofobia pues hay partes estrechas y esta muy oscuro. Algunos la conocen como la Ciudad Subterranea

Had an amazing tour at The Real Mary King's Close - our tour guide Ash was enthusiastic, friendly, and informative, knew answers to every question, extremely professional. You get to learn a lot about not only Mary King's Close, but also the people who lived there, the jobs they had, and stand in the exact same streets and houses they stood in hundreds of years ago. Preserved beautifully and presented respectfully, but still entertaining - any history lovers or families visiting Edinburgh should definitely check it out :) No photography allowed but you can get a souvenir photo taken at the end for an extra charge.
