This was a great ghost tour, and we’ve been on a bunch! Daria was terrific! We went at 8:00 pm and by the end of the tour it was dark. Daria was funny, told good stories, and got everyone engaged.

Our guide Daria was larger than life and super enthusiastic about York and its fascinating history. The tour took us to parts of the city we wouldn’t otherwise have gone to and Daria had a story to tell at each stopping point.

WeAreRoadWarriors

Daria is an entertaining and enthusiastic guide, leading a merry bunch of ghost enthusiasts through some of the hidden areas of this ancient city—we had a great time!

We were hosted by Dr Dorian Deathly and it was a great fun way spend the evening! The house was knowledgeable and made the story telling a load of fun with his dramatic retellings of some of the darker history of York. Keep in mind this is very much what it says on the website - there's drama, there's comedy and there's stories from York's history; it's not a tour where you should be expecting to see ghosts, but rather hear stories of them from the past. Can't recommend it as a fun night out enough, and a very enjoyable way to see York

This tour was wonderfully entertaining, interactive and the perfect length. Not too spooky for younger audiences, great for families.

We had a fantastic tour last night, and the guide was highly informative and entertaining. We saw parts of York we didn’t realise existed and all in all, this is a fun way to see the city and learn about some of its history.

NoahKristian

Loved the tour! Dante was very entertaining and a great story teller! Definitely one of our highlights from our time in York. Would recommend! 👻

OzGirl19

A fabulous night or touring York as our guide told the stories of old buildings and their ghostly inhabitants. I can’t remember his name (Daniel?) but his story telling and crowd participation made for a fabulous 1.5 hours touring the city. Highly recommend this tour - if you’re brave enough to do it 👻👻

JonathanW01

Had a great time. The tour leader was great, very enthusiastic and entertaining. Was interesting to hear all the stories. Would recommend.

Fantastic tour. Absolutely worth it. Very entertaining and wonderful guide (Dr. Dorian Deathly was our guide). The pace was good; it would have been nice to have a couple of places the sit and rest a minute along the way, but only because we'd been on our feet all day!
