Join Orkney Time Travel for a spooky evening guided walk to the dark side of Kirkwall, followed by Georgian supper. Take yourself back to the year 1798 with your Georgian hostess, merchant's wife Mrs Borwick. Explore the atmospheric streets and lanes of Kirkwall, visiting some iconic locations, and be regaled with chilling stories of Orcadian ghosts and witches.
Mrs Borwick then invites you into her Georgian home in the heart of town for a hearty authentic homemade supper, before withdrawing to the candlelit drawing room for more ghostly stories and a glass of warming spiced fruit punch.
