A hilarious history tour through the seriously skanky past lurking behind the "posh" New Town facade. Discover sex, drugs and Scotland’s first purpose-built comedy club (not that one). Edinburgh’s New Town might think she’s a cut above her grubbier sister, the Old Town, but she forgets her own dodgy past… There’s a whiff of scandal everywhere. No wonder the curtains twitch. Behind them you’ll find world-class courtesans, bonking bankers and outdoor sex parties. Yes, in Scotland. Brave, given the weather. That's the funny thing about history. It’s funny. Don’t forget to wear sensible shoes.
This is a walking tour. The meeting point is at Stand 4 (28 York Place, EH1 3EB). Please arrive at 2.50pm.
The tour will circle back to Stand 1 (5 York Place EH1, 3EB) after taking a walk around St Andrews Square. It's mostly flat, but there are a few steps in the Square.
Wear comfortable shoes, bring a brolly and (even though it's August) you might want to wear a light anorak.
16+ must be accompanied by adult
