Embark on a self-guided treasure hunt and experience a fun and unique way to explore Edinburgh. Captain Bess will send messages to your phones.

Follow the treasure maps to get to the right place, then try to decipher the clue. Search high and low for the answer. You’ll spot things you’d never normally notice. And don’t worry, if you get stuck you can ask for a hint to help you on your way. Start at Cockburn Street and sneak through tiny alleys and hidden squares, passing ancient alehouses and cobbled streets.
