Are the tours appropriate for children? 

 No. The tour is a comedy performance and is recommended for ages 16 and over, there are some adult themes and jokes and bad language is basically Scottish punctuation marks

How long does the tour last?

        Normally between an hour and a half and two hours

Will the tour go ahead in adverse weather conditions?

Absolutely, I wouldn't have a business if not..!! This is Scotland you should be prepared for inclement weather regardless of the time of year. I can provide you with some snazzy Mountebank umbrellas when raining.  

Is there a maximum number you can take on a tour?

Tours book up frequently, to avoid disappointment make sure you book online prior to your arrival. Normally I won't take more than 20 in a group

If I need to cancel am I entitled to a refund?

If you cancel at least 3 hours before your departure time you will receive a full refund (please note this differs for those who book via Tripadvisor/Viator in that case their own cancellation policies apply)

Can I consume or purchase alcohol during the tour?

Not while we are on the streets. The tour starts at Monkey Barrel comedy which has a well stocked and reasonably priced bar open until silly o'clock at night. 

Is the tour suitable for stag or hen parties?

If hearing the funny side of Scottish history is your thing then why not. Bear in mind I'm not going to tailor the tour to 'stitch up the stag' or any of that pish, also it's over an hour you're going to be required to go without a jaegerbomb

Is the tour, and Monkey Barrel wheelchair accessible?

Edinburgh is a medieval city built on a dormant volcano this means we will be climbing up steep hills and steps. There are always alternate routes I can take however to ensure everyone can access and enjoy the tour. Where possible please get in touch and make me aware of any accessibility issues you have before you arrive on your tour 

I am an arseshole, am I welcome on the tour?

We operate a strict 'no areshole' rule at Mountebank sorry
