The stories were incredibly captivating and entertaining. A great way to explore the city, and get a taste of the ghosts all around you!
Fun entertaining and a wonderful guide. An easy pace with plenty of ghostly stories mixed with historical sites.
This tour was fantastic! I genuinely learned so many interesting things, and the way that Monica tells the stories really keeps you hooked on what she’s going to say next. The perfect way to see the city and find out some morbid history at the same time! Would absolutely recommend to anyone coming to York.
