Kate was superbly entertaining! She added great dramatic flavor to her storytelling and made our experience great! Lots of historical details, precise references and a pinch of spookiness…
Denise_B, May 2026
So much fun! Fantastic tour in such an interesting place. Tour guide Kayle was a great story teller and very friendly. I love the tours from the Haunted Walk, they blend history, great locations and first hand accounts into an awesome experience!

The experience was awesome! Our guide, Carolyn, was great. I’ve never gone on a ghost tour, but after this experience, would do it again! It was a mix of history about the distillery and Canada along with a few ghost tales collected from the area. Carolyn was a great storyteller!

Caroline was a great storyteller. Enjoyed the walking tour and learning about the distillery district. She took time getting to know the people on the tour.

It ended up being a private tour since no one else bought tickets and it was amazing! Paul was our tour guide and he was so knowledgeable and made it fun

The stories weren't intriguing or show anything that made you go wow. Been on ghost tours in other places and this was not very good. Do not recommend.

I really enjoyed my ghost tour of the Distillery District. Our guide Kit was very friendly, knowledgeable, and shared insights about the history of the area in an interesting way. Many thanks for being our guide!!

Katie was absolutely phenomenal. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and learned a lot and we even had a fright!
Sharon_M, Oct 2024
Walking the distillery and looking at all the shops. I wanted to return when three shops were open for shopping. The history was interesting, but not spooky or haunted at all.
Martha_B, Sep 2024
What a fun tour and amazing location. Kaley was so knowledgeable, friendly and full of great stories and history. After the tour we stayed in the area which had some cool bars. The Spirit of York distillery is a must.
Duane_B, Jul 2024
We were hoping to actually go into the buildings. Disappointing it was just some stories. Not at all what we were expecting based on several other similar tours we have been on.
Chris_W, Jul 2024
It was a great way to not only learn about the history of the distillery but also some history of the toronto water front.
Alfred_S, Jun 2024
Interesting history of the Distillery District. Great ghost "stories" (all true).
Tour even covers Prohibition period in Canada.
Colleen_M, Jun 2024
Irene is a talented storyteller who brought her spooky stories to life. She is friendly, welcoming, engaging, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend that you spend some time with her on this ghost tour in a beautiful location.
Leslie_M, May 2024
The guide Margo was an absolute delight! Knowledgeable and approachable, she made the experience magical. We had an absolutely wonderful time!
Cathy_S, Oct 2023
It would have been nice to have more current ghost stories than centuries ago. It was getting boring after listening to that as it wasn’t scary at all.
Magali_C, Oct 2023
Cute tour. It is very memorized and recited, kind of feels like you’re watching a play, but it’s a cute little short tour. Would have liked it to be creepier, personally.
Asma_A, Oct 2023
It was a very nice experience thank you for the good stories.
We would recommend friends and family thanks
Krissy_D, Sep 2023
Jack was kind and knowledgeable!! Great at telling a good story. We had a spooky fun time! My hubby is a history buff and I'm a paranormal buff, so v this type of tour works well for us.
Ashley_G, Sep 2023
Katie did a great job - great storytelling! I got sick and had to leave at the second stop and was sad I didn’t get to hear the rest! Would def recommend:)
Danielle_B, Sep 2023

A fun experience for all ages!

Kit was a wonderful tour guide with a great voice for story telling. She gave wonderful energy and clear vocabulary.
Betina_W, May 2023
Kit was fun and very knowledgeable about the distillery. It was really interesting to hear the history connected to the ghosts. I'd recommend getting there a couple of hours early and having a bite to eat or explore the shops.
Jason_J, Apr 2023
Sarah was awesome and made our night. Would recommend to all my friends. She was very knowledgeable and added flare to the stories
SANDRA_M, Oct 2022
Our guide , Cole was an excellent story-teller and built up suspense throughout the tour. Walking from location to location was a great way to experience the stories. I have already recommended the tour to a friend and we look forward to checking out other ghost tours in the city that Cole mentioned.
