About The Real Mary King’s Close Herstory Tour
Our Herstory Tour shines a light on the lives of ordinary women who were instrumental in shaping the city’s development.
Walk in the footsteps of figures like Mary Queen of Scots, Sophia-Jex Blake, and the Edinburgh Seven.
In a world where 45% of households had female heads, meet Mary King herself and learn how she defied norms.
