We were in Victoria for a family vacation and wanted to do a walking tour. My husband and I are very much fans of all things haunted so we decided to book this tour for us as well as my In-Laws and Aunt & Uncle. We had a great time! It was a great way to hear some history of the city, with the added bonus of hauntings, etc. Our tour guide Fiona was AWESOME.
Such a fun way to spend part of the evening and see Victoria from a new/spookier perspective! Amazing story telling and very reasonably priced.
Fiona was captivating! She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and extremely entertaining! She always made sure that everyone in the group could hear her. We were a large group (about 24) and yet she made us all feel welcome and part of the group. She was open to questions and was so passionate about the history, it made us more engaged in this experience! I would highly recommend this tour, it is very well priced and a great way to spend an hour in the evening! Victoria, is a mesmerizing city that has so much history, we really had no idea how much history was in this beautiful city. Thank you Fiona for a great experience. ( ps. There are two amazing ghost tours on the Royal mile in Edinburgh: Mary Kings Close and The world famous underground ghost tour, I would recommend to you when you are in the UK studying! ) Good luck and thanks again!
Our guide was really great! She was very good at telling (spooky) stories and the history of the area. My husband and I learned a lot and had a fun time walking around listening to the ghost stories.
It was a great tour with great stories. A little bit of history with some haunted tales mixed it. Highly recommend!
It was a great evening complete with murder of ravens circling above. We learned more about Victoria.
This was an amazing tour. Chris is such a superb tour guide. He gets everyone involved and is so knowledgeable about the history of Victoria. We would do this tour again in a second!!!
Interesting stories. Still concerned about the ghost who got displaced by an elevator at the Empress.
Thanks for coming along with us on our Ghostly Walks and that you found our stories to be so compelling that you are still worried about the ghost in the elevator at the Empress. Things have a way of working out, so don’t worry.
Poor story telling at best. He definitely needs to change style. It was difficult to stay interested.
We’re so sorry to hear that you were not engaged by the stories that you heard on our Ghostly Walks. What people find entertaining is such a personal thing, and we’re sorry that we weren’t able to pique your interest.
Very interesting. I'd never been to the Island before so it was interesting to hear some "fun" facts.
Thanks for letting us know that you enjoyed the fun facts that you gathered by taking our Ghostly Walks. We hope that you visit Victoria again and take another one of our Ghostly Walks.
