Booking the Crime Tour was very simple.. The Tour Guide sensibly delayed the start by 30 minutes due to inclement weather and I was informed by both call and text.. Upon arrival, the guide welcomed us in a warm and friendly manner.. The tour itself was excellent and the guide was extremely knowledgeable, bringing the stories alive with her passionate delivery of each.. The tour moved at a good pace but in no way rushed.. Guide was always happy to elaborate on any of the stories as well as tangential information regarding the city of Brisbane.. Excellent.. Thank you..

We went for the Bloody Brisbane CBD Crime Tour with our Tour Guide Glory. Great night, awesome stories that paint a picture of Brisbane grim history. Glory is very professional, super informative and shows true passion for her job. Can not recommend this tour enough. I have been a huge fan of Jack Sim for many years. Please support him and his business. These tours are wonderful and a true ‘must do’. Can’t wait to next tour.

Sam gave us an interesting true crime tour around Brisbane. I've lived in this city almost my whole life, I had no idea of the crimes which has occurred in my city. There was a lot of information given and it was a really good way to spend an evening.

Walk around tour with crime stories . Sam was our host for the evening and did a fantastic job of telling chilling tales of murder . Dont want to spoil it with too many details of murder but a great tour well thought out and well planned . Travelling solo i was a bit worried about making my way across the centre on my own at 9pm but the tour finished couple of mins from my hotel . Sam offered anyone she would help them back to hotels with directions or walking them back . Great tour great host

Our guide Sam was awesome! She was both knowledgeable and entertaining. It was a mother daughter night out for us and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely keen to do a ghost tour with Sam next!
