Kellois

Not impressed with this tour. Started as what felt like a tour of Birmingham car parks; took me up dodgy looking streets; map took me to the wrong places; many clues repetitive and didn’t take me to the top spots. I stopped for some food and it kicked me out and took an age to get back in. Sorry this needs some work

John M

The idea is good, but even though we felt we had the only possible answer first one location it did not work. Another location was off the beaten track, unpleasant, had scaffolding, and the clue did not seem to exist. Password management in the app is clunky, dues not work well. For what it is, it is poor value for money. The App and Birmingham haunted need some work Not worth the money.

Fantastic event spent the day walking and exploring the city. Learnt a lot about the history and stopped at a few bars along the way found interesting places we will be returning too. A brilliant concept easy to follow interactive and enjoyable.

Paula_s

The canal walk and walking on water was enjoyable our favourite was the walking round the city and seeing different places

Gill C

Had a work meeting and rather than just the pub for drinks after I booked this. What a laugh we had. Reenacting the characters (badly) and stopping at pubs as we followed the clues. A great way to see parts of Birmingham you otherwise may not and learn so much in a fun way. Highly recommend
