The wheels on the bus

4.00A lively tour but not made any easier given there were only four of us on the bus. Harry did well to keep it going! Over lengthy stop near St Bart’s and an early finish after an hour slightly disappointed but still good value overall. Ruth was literally done to death. Can’t help but think more passengers would have helped spirits (get that one Harry ?)
Great if you prefer not to walk.

5.00Scar was a great host. Very funny and told some great stories. Convenient and fun if you aren't up for a lot of walking.

5.00This is a wonderful experience. I was on my own- but the tour ‘ghost’ made it feel welcoming and got everyone involved. There were some fascinating facts and plenty of laughs. The highlight though is the man who does the commentary.
Do not recommend

1.00This is not your typical ghost tour. While the atmosphere was set well the experience ended there. What few ghost stories were told were not told well. It seemed like they were trying for humorous, but it fell flat. It ended up being a bus ride with an annoying guide.
Fab time! Really relaxed, funny & informative!

5.00Great time had with family and 12/ 15yo kids Funny and informative! Wouks have preferred seats to be reserved as we had 5 and people of 2 had a seat together and we were split…
Great Promotional Photos and reviews

3.00The promo tours and reviews are better than the tour. The tour was ok - something to do, but I would not rebook. I went with my thirteen year old. Neither of us found the stories interesting or funny. The guide gave 100% - no shade on him, but the material just wasn't good - not funny or interesting, flat. My son said, which I thought was an interesting commentary from a youngster - "he just yelled into the mic and told flat jokes that he thought himself funny". The tour finished in 50 minutes, not an hour and a half. But, we were so happy it was over, I didn't even care.
Fun
