We were a group of work colleagues from across the UK looking for an activity for the evening and John laid on a really interesting tour just for us. John was very well informed, full of local knowledge and his anecdotes were a fascinating insight into bits of Bristol that don't regularly feature in other walking tours! As a Bristol... More

The tour is great and very interesting. Having only just arrived in Bristol for the first time ever about an hour before the tour began I did not know the city at all. But at the end of the tour, not only had I heard some great stories, but I also had a really good feel for the city too!... More

I first come across the tour whilst researching the city for my mum’s birthday, my mum loves historic & ghost walks so I was really disappointed when I saw the walk was only held on a Friday. I emailed John, the guy who does the walk, if he could accommodate a tour on another evening and he instantly replied with... More

I am from Bristol and John was a friendly and approachable chap. He has good local knowledge and the tour was entertaining. However, he has a strong but softly spoken accent and speaks quite quietly. This was okay because I could understand him most of the time as I was right at the front. I can understand why he cannot... More

Some friends & I took part in one of the special Hallowe'en tours and it was a fantastic and different way to mark the occasion. John clearly has a love of his home city of Bristol and whether you're a fellow Bristolian who thinks they know everything there is to know about our city or visiting from out of town,... More

after experiencing the ghost walk i must say we were left feeling dissapointed. firstly we felt the group size was too big, if u were at the back of the group you couldnt hear anything, so missed out on the story and just had to follow the ones in front. the experience didnt feel very personal either and was very...

We really enjoyed the ghost tour of Bristol. The guide was very knowledgeable, it was a very interesting tour, and we learnt a lot about local history. One of the group had been before and didn't find the tour repetitive. Lots of fun! More

Me and my girlfriend went along to join one of the tours not knowing what to expect. The guide, John, was very knowledgeable of the city and it's history, as well as being very funny. I would recommend this as an alternative to the regular Friday night activity, and it's made us want to investigate Bristol more. More
