Happy with our short stop in Victoria

Daniela_S, May 2026
The experience was great. Tour took about an hour and multiple stops. Guide was very knowledgeable aand made her ghostly stories very entertaining. Would definitely recommend.

Betty_B, May 2026
Asher, the tour guide is a great storyteller with an excellent voice and demeanor, perfect for the ghost tour!

Interesting ghostly tales

David_J, May 2026
Jacob’s ghost walk tour was fantastic! The guide was knowledgeable and charismatic, weaving local history with eerie stories that kept everyone engaged. The route showcased beautiful Victorian architecture while revealing chilling tales I hadn't heard before. My favorite moment was the final segment when we were led into a small, abandoned dark room — the claustrophobic, silent setting created an intense, genuinely scary vibe. Overall I give the tour 5/5 and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for atmosphere and a few good scares.

A haunting good time!

Shelise_R, May 2026
This was our fourth time on the ghost tour and it didn’t disappoint! Chris was our tour guide this time around and was great at relaying the haunted stories of bastion square. If you want a fun and frightful tour, then this is for you.

Ok

Suzie_K, May 2026
It was ok but nothing special...sorry! We did like the fact that we were introduced to Rogers chocolate shop though!

Great storytelling

Fun stories, but.....

Julie_C, Apr 2026
The stories were fun but it would have been great to not sit and get cold while they were told. Would have been nice to walk and talk - the wind off the harbor made it hard to listen and we were bundled up.

Response from Host, May 2026

It’s nice to know that you thought that the stories you heard on our Ghostly Walks were fun. Sorry that you got cold while you were listening to the tales. It’s sometimes hard to know how to dress for the weather but we always suggest bringing an extra layer as Victoria can be cool in the evening.

Unsettling

Wade_V, Feb 2026
Asher scared me. This is a good thing. Felt very uneasy by the end and hoped not to be haunted by the specters of his stories.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Your feelings are a great indication of how powerful the stories and the storytellers are on our Ghostly Walks. We hope that you were able to settle down and were not visited from the other dimensions.
