Not to be missed!! - First of all, we would like to say a big thank you to Michael, who made a big exception for us and was so kind and let us re-use our tickets that we couldn't redeem some time ago. The ghost tour with Pat, our tour guide, was great fun and we both enjoyed it immensely. Pat is a character, a great entertainer and very knowledgeable. The stories we were told were both interesting and scary. Even though we don't live far from Cobh, this was new to us, so if you think you know it all, you don't 😉 We can only recommend this tour, it's certainly something different. Thank you for a fantastic experience! Sabrina & Neil

Must do! - Michael was a great guide! The ghost tour was informative and interesting with tales of the legends of Cobh harbor. Would highly recommend adding to your itinerary in Cobh!

Brilliant, creepy fun! - I love all things supernatural, so myself and two friends joined Michael for the ghost tour while they were visiting from the UK. Despite it being a bright summer’s evening, the stories sent a shiver up my spine. Michael was a welcoming, humorous and interesting tour guide with a broad knowledge of both the history of Cobh and the ghostly events that are said to have taken place around the area. A story about the top floor of one of the local hotels was particularly frightening and got a strong reaction out of everyone on the tour. I can tell that Michael had plenty more stories to tell and I’d have happily listened to him speak for another hour! Afterwards we went into the Commodore Hotel for a few drinks and spoke to the bar manager about the tour, which prompted her to tell us a few stories of her own. This is a must for anyone who likes a good fright and I’ll definitely be back the next time I have visitors.

Ok but pricey ghost tour - It was an ok tour but some of the tales told didn’t flow so well in terms of background and context. Also, we found the tour to be simply too pricey for what it was- around 22 euros each for 1 hour whereas other tours in the area such as the Kinsale ghost tour is only 12 euros per person.
