My friend and I were really pleased we chose to take this tour. First off, you don't have to reserve. Just show up. Prepare for lots of walking. We covered almost all of downtown and sure got our fitness steps done. It's not scary, but rather you hear all of the stories about ghosts and hauntings that are part of Halifax's history. It was a beautiful evening and paced really well from start to finish.
Thanks for coming along and for your kind review. Hope you enjoyed tohis part of the world!
In Andy's defence, this was only my 3rd ghost walk ever, my wife's 4th. Last one was in Lunenburg. Having said that, there was just something about his presentation that we thought could have been better - although what that is exactly we can't pinpoint. This one (as per our past experiences) was very informative and definitely entertaining and in fact we have no complaints. Even the price was right. Just that there seemed to be a little something missing. Everyone present appeared to enjoy it very much, I'd still say give it a try.
Thank you for attending ...
Andy is an awesome storyteller, and was able to engage both young and old! Loved the opportunity to walk through the streets of Halifax at dusk, and get a real feel for the history! Did we see someone up in that window? I'm thinking maybe we did!!!
Ahh ... Thank you for coning along! Glad you enjoyed the evening walk.
And you're not alone in wondering whether someone was up there!
Andy is delightful and knows to tell a good story.
I would have loved to see more cemeteries or definitely more indoor locations, such as an old museum, church, theaters, etc. Adding a little spookiness with an hold handheld lantern would create an appeal to those easily spooked.
The only recommendation I would submit is to ensure with participants that they can participate in the language for the group. Ghost stories require a story telling ability, to pause at the right moments, to use intensity.
This aspect is substantially diminished when translation services are being asked by group participants. Therefore, a tour in either official languages would be best, if at all possible.
Thank you Andy.
Thank you for attending my Ghost Walk and for your kind review ... That particular group's need for translation was a surprise to me and I am sorry for any inconvenience it caused. I felt it as well! Cheers!
Great experience of the downtown history. Thoroughly enjoyed the stories shared by Andy. Would definately recommend, especially for the price 15.00 great tour
Thank you for coming and for your very kind review. Glad you enjoyed your time with me. Cheers!
We love doing ghost tours as we travel. This one was outstanding. The leader was very dramatic and drew us into the story. He was very knowledgable and interwove Halifax history into the tales. What a great way to experience Halifax at night.
Glad you came along . . . and enjoyed our walk. Thank you for your kind review.
