Great Trip

It was a great local trip for us. You may want to check the locations before planning a date as some are closed on weekends or have a small window that they are open.

Thank you for your review Kandice! We're always looking to make our trips better for future travellers, and your feedback helps us do that! :) If you have any specific feedback on locations that were closed when you travelled, please feel free to email us and let us know.

Lacklustre

We found this trip incredibly dry and boring. We've done others that we really liked. But this one missed the mark.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback! Our haunted trips are definitely different from our other road trips - they rely more on ghost stories written within the booklets, and less on the usual businesses and sites you'll find in our other road trips. We hope you still found a ghost story or two within the booklets to give you the chills!

Not one I'd recommend

I did not find this trip interesting or fun compared to others I've done.

We're sorry to hear this trip didn't live up to our others! Our haunted trips definitely have a different vibe to them - more abandoned stops with ghost stories than you'd see on our other trips. Happy to hear you've had fun on other road trips of ours :)

Fantastic day trip

We went on this as a girls day out right before Halloween, because what better time to go on a haunted tour. It’s nice that these hidden gems are so close to home but never knew they existed. Definitely recommend one of these and will be looking into different destinations in the near future.

Great girls day out

I decided to try this trip around Halloween because what better time to do a haunted tour. Definitely worth looking into if you’ve ever thought about it. It was amazing to see all these hidden gems within 1.5 hour radius from home. Don’t want to give anything away. Fantastic day and will definitely be doing this again.
