About this activity

Begin your adventure at Maggie Dickson's pub and hear the incredible story of how Maggie Dickson survived a public execution in the early 1700s. Then, make your way to Grassmarket Community Project, a social enterprise, and Greyfriar's Cemetary, where you'll learn about the Covenanters and the first concentration camp in history. Hear stories about Deacon Brody, the character that inspired Jekyll and Hyde, before making your final stops at Street Work and the Serenity Café, the UK's first addiction recovery cafe.
Tour proceeds provide support for the social enterprise Invisible (Edinburgh)'s tour guides, who have all been affected by homelessness.
