    Tour (Jack) was great and quite knowledgeable on the Conan Doyle/Sherlock Holmes tour. We had a short snafu on the initial meet up, but it was quickly remedied.

    Definitely a must do for any Sherlock Holmes fan

    This was a fun scavenger hunt app that took us to some parts of Edinburgh's Royal Mile that we might have missed otherwise. We learned some random things, followed some fun clues, and it was a fun way to explore the city! One suggestion is to bring a spare power bank, just in case.

    Great fun. It's become a family tradition to do a mystery trail around cities we have visited for the first time, as it helps us find out lots of places and facts that we wouldn't have found on our own. This was our second Killer Trail and we thoroughly enjoyed it - the puzzles were a good level of challenge and we had fun finalising the details over a well deserved meal at the end!

    Due to the Christmas Markets in Edinburgh the first two puzzles were not possible to answer, with temporary changes and signage blocking the views. We reported this and WCT refunded us immediately.
    We've not had a complimentary one for another city offered to us, which I would have expected for our inconvenience - but I did appreciate the swift refund.
