Entertaining, informative and very quirky. Would definitely recommend this tour if you are looking for a laugh whilst gaining some insight into the unique and haunting history of York.

We found it a bit babyish and boring. No scares, just someone shouting down a microphone. Was advertised as comedy ghost tour. We didn't find it funny either. We've been on other walking ghost tours of York previously and found these much better. Wouldn't recommend or do it again. Lots of people left half way through when bus stopped mid way.

Very funny and engaging experience and the conductor we had was incredibly funny. I definitely recommend going good for all ages

'John Doe' was our conductor host, he was exceptional! Atmosphere was suitably spooky, plenty of opportunities to interact with the hosts and other travellers. We enjoyed ourselves so much, we wish we had booked it twice!

Phil and bob was best experience in York. Very informative, relatable humour. And overall Phil appeared a decent human being. Shame didn’t had cash in the end to tip it to show how good it was.

Fun, entertaining and informal. Phil was perfect as guide in all aspects -information about York history, jokes (not to cheesy, not outdated) and appear as honest and decent man. Experience way past dungeon experience.

Great trip. Aaron was informative and funny. Pick up place was easy to find. Well worth an hour of your time

Tour itself was reasonably good, but I had to call "customer service" who did not answer for 45 mins and I got charged £38 for the call. This is a terrible business practice, so who knows how else this company is going to rip you off.
