Spooky wooky fun

5.00We were promised an evening of dark macabre history, and we were not disappointed. Spooky Jo was amazing and knowledgeable, made us feel very much at ease, she’s got the facts and she’s got the delivery. We found out things that most locals don’t know. We laughed, we jumped and we learned. So what that the tour ran over, we got more for our money and had a great time learning, but also we had time to for a personal chat with Jo and find out the amazing work she does
Brilliant way to spend a couple of hours!

5.00Went on a spur of the moment decision. Apart from it being freezing, my husband and I really enjoyed this experience (and he is hard to please!) Spooky Jo gave us so much information about the city we have grown up in and never knew! Her bubbly personality made even better. I would totally recommend her walks to anybody. There was even a lady in a wheelchair and Spooky Jo adapted the walk to suit, so nobody missed out! Fabulous!
Darker side of Coventry

5.00We had such a wonderful time with ‘Spooky Jo’. She managed the whole trip so well, and even though it rained, we still had a blast. The best part is, it was a dog-friendly tour and my dog “Barney” loved it too! We learned some fascinating facts and stories about Coventry. If you’re curious about the darker side of Coventry, I highly recommend it!
Coventry: Ancient Pubs and WW II hub.

5.00Coventry Is one of my favorite cities in the WORLD! It is a working class town. It is a walking town. It is a town countless nationalities: middle eastern, African, Venezuelan and Carribean and Indian. The history and the beauty of the Coventry Cathedral ruins and the stunning rebuild by multiple countries of the globe never fails to inspire me. The Transportation Museum is not to be missed. WW I and WW II scenes are vividly displayed as they impacted Coventry. Coventry has historically been a major manufacturing hub for iconic car brands like Jaguar, Daimler, and Triumph. Terrific 600 and 700 year old pubs are welcoming and tasty! Also within 20 - 30 miles of Shakespeare country and Warwick Castle. Coventry is also a developing center for permoriming arts and the visual arts.

5.00I go on walking tours all around the world & 'Spooky Jo' is up there with the very best guides that l have ever encountered. It's not her amazing recall of the material that delivers a great experience, it's her incredible storytelling ability, humour & setting of atmosphere that made this a brilliant tour experience. I thoroughly loved every moment & was shocked at how quickly the time passed. My partner & l are planning on attending other Jo tours because we had such a great time.
Great tour
