- KAKayla Ado3 days ago5.0Actors were absolutely phenomenal! Really made the experience. I really wish they had an adults only tour as the kids on ours did get a bit rowdy and took away from our ability to get scared or immerse.
- JJJessica6 days ago5.0Myself and my daughter visited the Dungeons today and had an absolute blast. The staff were all amazing ( thank you so much ) for the laughs, the spooks and the memories..and well done for figuring out I was a Witch 🧙♀️ ! I have even learned something new today so very excited to delve into the history of Burke and Hare! Thank you all again for making our first ever dungeon visit Spooktacular! 🤩
- KPKatarzyna PanekAug 24, 20265.0Polecam to miejsce! To mroczna historia Edynburga zamknięta w scenerii jak z horroru. Uczestniczysz w spektaklu, który grany jest przez aktorów, przechodzisz przez Edynburg dotknięty zarazą, słuchasz historii morderców i czarownic i przenosisz się w ich świat.
- JFJohan FalconAug 23, 20265.0Un lugar muy interesante y entretenido. Está muy bien ambientado y los actores muy buenos y profesionales. Muy buen precio de entrada si se piensa en la duración y calidad del show. Lo recomiendo definitivamente.
- MSMike “Sparkles” SparkesAug 21, 20265.0This was a wonderful interactive experience. The actors took their parts really well and everyone was enjoying the show. I was called out by 'Judge Mental' and he basically wanted to 'hang me high!'. The sets were authentic and my daughter who is autistic, but loves the 'horrible histories' felt very much a part of the whole experience.
Frequently Asked Questions About The Edinburgh Dungeon
When are you open?
The Edinburgh Dungeon's opening times vary, please check the website for further details. www.thedungeons.com/edinburgh
WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AGE FOR THE DUNGEON?
We don't allow children under 5 at all. We also don't recommend for children under 8, although this is at parent's and guardian's discretion - you know your kids better than we do and every child reacts differently!
I booked the wrong ticket or date - what can I do?
Please email us at edinburgh.dungeon@merlinentertainments.biz subject: "ticket query / change" and tell us the date / time / order number of your ticket and what you wish to change it to as well as your contact details and we will get in touch.
Can I leave my bags / suitcases at the Dungeon?
We are not able to store luggage or suitcases on site, but there is a left luggage within Waverley Station which is 2 minutes walk from the Edinburgh Dungeon. Small backpacks and rucksacks, as well as handbags are fine to take on tour with you.
Can I skip the rides?
We are a Dungeon, but not an actual prison. We cannot force you (much as the Torturer wishes) to do anything, or go on any ride you don't want to. If you want to skip the rides, just let our actor know (you'll be given the opportunity to opt out during the tour). If you need to leave at any time during the tour, we will escort you - but please note we do not issue refunds if you choose to leave half-way through the tour.
I don't want my photo taken, do I have to?
As above, we can't force you to do anything if you don't want to. Just let the photo team know you'd prefer not to have your picture taken.
What are the restrictions on the rides?
Visitors with back or neck injuries, heart conditions or broken limbs have restrictions on the rides which you can get more detail on here.
There is a minimum height restriction of 1.4 metres for the drop ride, you must be over this height to be allowed on.
Is the Drop Ride operating at the moment?
Currently the Drop Ride is not in operation.
