H. Spurgeon, being the pastor of the London church at that time.

Audio tour - Great audio tour. Lots of walking up and down hills, so wear comfortable walking shoes. Information was very informative.

First time visitor - The audio tour was great! It took us all around downtown Auckland. It was a lot of walking up and down hills, so be prepared. I would recommend this for first timers.

A good tour and worth the price! - A good walk through the central area of Auckland, hitting the parks, K Street, and guiding you through some fun alleys. Worth the cost!

See the city - I really enjoyed this tour since I could take my time and enjoy the city. I was able to see part of the city that I normally wouldn't have seen. This tour is great for solo and group travelers.

Seeing the city - This self guided tour is great for groups or as a solo traveler. You can go at your own pace, re-listen to the commentary if you need and take lots of pics. I was able to see parts of the city I wouldnt have seen otherwise.

Creepy and historic! What a find! - This was super fun and… bonus, a bit creepy! We did the self guided history tour with audio guide which was great. Loved the run down historic nature of the place. So much history!
Don’t forget to do an escape room while you’re there (book ahead) family fun - yay!

Amazing experience!!! - Had an amazing experience, everything was well organised. Enjoyed the escape room activity and completed the challenge (Ishaan thank you :p)
We took the ghost tour and it was worth the time we spent over there. Had a great chat with Ishaan and he gave us awesome reference for lunch. Thank you Ishaan for your hospitality. It is definitely a must place to visit if you are planning a trip to Napier.

Just amazing - Interesting tour and so pleased we took the advice of friends as we didn't want to be travelling on busy buses with others.

Great rainy day activity - We did the history tour which was very interesting. Hard to believe it was still operating into the 1990s. A family of five with teens, we tacked on an escape room experience, which is such a cool idea for an old prison. Alas, we were not clever enough to escape within the 60 minutes. In fact, we'd probably still be there if there wasn't a time limit!
