5.00Cecilia was a great guide. It was just our group with her. She was very nice and a good story teller. And she gave out candy for answering questions about what she had told us which was fun and also helps to remember the stories. We usually do just ghost tours in cities but we love movies so had to try this out. Mind blown by how much is filmed here. Highly recommend the tour. Now what you really want to know-how much walking. She did a good job trying to get us stops with benches when she could. We did hit some stairs when we went into the Fairmont. Other than that it is a walking tour but we didn’t hit any huge hills or really any other stairs after that. We do walk around the art museum area and then over to gastown so distance in the description should be accurate but it is broken up by stops.
We had an amazing time...

5.00Wow! Ryan is amazing storyteller and also very funny guide. He make the whole tour unique and engaging. I wish it was more longer and to enter the actual buildings, but Ryan kept the tour really scary and spooky. Also, there‘s some activities that we do on Blood Alley that are nothing like the other ghost tours.

5.00If you are a fan of scary, interesting and exciting stories, this tour is for you. I simply loved my experience. I was able to see Vancouver from a totally unique angle and what I liked most was the fact that in addition to the scary stories, we are also introduced to historical facts and beautiful journeys that surrounded the region. Ryan was a kind guide, extremely polite, with a wealth of knowledge and a willingness to help. I felt comfortable at all times. I loved it, I recommend it and I would love to do it again!
