Loved our information tour by Nat. Pleasant walking through the grounds on a beautiful night, fireworks in the distance a nice bonus! Went with my family

The male staff was extremely rude not even a hello before he was upset with us for being in the wrong place then 12 people all driving around looking for a girl standing in the dark under a tree in all black in a side rd with ni sign light Indicating where to go then they were both clearly annoyed as we overheard then complaining we didn’t know where to go . Maybe a hi how are you sorry you didn’t find us but welcome then when we approached to ask were we in the right spot to be cut off and said il be with you in a moment while they were winging was very uncomfortable I wouldn’t recommend this tour to anyone drWn out weird voice condescending tone for 2 hrs with no sense of fun or a inclusion of the group was just not worth the over 1 hr drive and $45 to do sorry would definitely not recommend

The host was extremely good, knowledgable and a fantastic storyteller - couldnt fault the experience whatsoever. Interactive too which is WAY better - having a chance to be involved one step closer to the haunted sights. Will do again when next in Brisbane!

Our guide was FANTASTIC! He showed up and identified our group, he let us know that we would be waiting until precisely the appointed time before departing on the tour. At which point, he took up a post facing the Brisbane Arcade (in full costume) and stared ahead as if on pause. We were highly entertained by watching the passersby getting unnerved by his out-of-place presence. Our guide remained in character the entire time, which was fabulous, and the stories were delivered with great affect and detail, any who listen and have any belief in the supernatural would definitely feel the creep of cold going up their spines multiple times through the presentation. It was great way to see the city and learn more about the lesser known parts of Brisbane's history. I definitely plan on doing some of the other tours.

Our tour guide was superb with his dramatic storytelling and drawing us into the moment of ghostly embrace. The history of Brisbane was as good as the ghost stories. I thought we needed torches, sensible footwear but we were only in the main streets of the CBD. At least one alley was expected to get the adrenalin running and for our guide to swing his lantern while telling his tale but this didn't eventuate. More could have been made of the lane where the gallows were. To finish, our guide made this tour, he was exceptional starting off with his pince-nez and distant manner, dressed in a long black coat with a top hat accessorised with a dark red flower and grey ribbon. He was an awesome guide. My guess is that he's also an actor. Absolutely superb. Did I mention how much I thought the guide made this haunted tour of Brisbane?

I have done many ghost tours throughout Australia and overseas and unfortunately this was the worst. The storey telling was fine however we never went off the beaten track and down alleys etc. We were constanlty standing on street corners in the middle of the Brisbane CBD which was a problem with local hoons driving past or revelers interjecting. This really detracted from the atmosphere of the yarns. The tour lasts about 1.5 hrs. Suggest a tour that is not in CBD. The company has other tours available but we thought we would give it a go. Reasonably priced though. Took our 8 yo and thismwas not a problem.

We have already done many tours with Jack's company and have thoroughly enjoyed every one! Jack is such a wonderful story teller. His passion for his work, the stories and the history he talks to you about really draws you in and then you're hooked, you become just as excited and passionate as he is. The tour is completely fascinating and fun not too much walking and the bus is comfortable clean and driven with care. There are plenty of opportunities to explore the stops with some surprises Long the way.
