Mel, our guide, knew all the stories and brought them to life with a great style of telling. The walk itself is fairly leisurely and we were lucky enough to have perfect weather with a sky full of stars and a nice breeze. Altogether a great 90 minutes. Loved it.

This was a Christmas gift from my sister and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of stories there were in this tour. I am a novocastrian and have always lived in Newy and didn’t know a single story. The tour guide Violet was very passionate and really knew her stuff. She was very professional and checked in with us during the tour guide. I really appreciated the content warnings when we got to a story that was about SA. I’d recommend this tour for visitors to Newy as well as fellow novocastrians

The walk was good going through old parts of Newcastle and seeing old buildings. The stories were entertaining and light hearted. The tour guide was lovely and very informative. Would recommend taking insect repellent and water

I'm a huge true crime enthusiast and have lived in Newcastle for 40 years yet our wonderful tour guide Julia took me to some parts of the town I had never been and did not even know about! Although the stories of crime were not jaw dropping they were interesting and Julia told them very well.
