Brilliant!! - Had an absolute blast!! Smaller group than we expected but that honestly made it better. The guides/actors really got us immersed in the stories they told, they interacted (i.e. they jumped out at us every time we got off the bus) with us at every turn, the girl ( sorry i forget her name) that we met at the old jail(?) was a joy she really knew her stuff and got us all involved - some of us more than others! If you have a spare 2-3 hours and have even the tiniest interest in ghost stories then this is a perfect tour for you. Would absolutely recommend this, it was fantastic!

The Ghost Tour That Broke the Mold - This tour completely exceeded our expectations! I’ve been on several ghost tours in different cities, so I thought I knew what to expect—the typical stop, spooky story, then on to the next. But this tour was anything but typical. I won’t spoil the surprises, but I can honestly say it’s one of the best tours I’ve ever been on. From the moment we stepped onto the bus, it felt like we were transported back in time. If you're looking for a ghost tour that's immersive, entertaining, and refreshingly different, this is the one!

Grave digger tour , read the reviews before you book so you know that you get rather than presume and be dissatisfied - A great way to spend a couple of hours in Dublin , the characters put a lot of energy into the tour . Don’t come if you have a weak heart though or the last stop may become your last stop

Great thing to do on a rainy Friday night - Had a great tour on a rainy Friday night during a visit to Dublin in March. Sean, our tour guide did an excellent performance was very knowledgeable and told us all about the plague in Dublin. The tour features. Some nice places doesn’t overwhelm me with a bunch of history and is very interactive with its guests.

Making light humor out of dark history. - What a great time. A few jump scares (pop out and scare ya), a little bit of cursing, and a whole bunch of fun history. We opted to take our 8yr old daughter and would say it’s a PG-13 thing. She did great and the tour crew was very kind and cognizant of having a youngster onboard. Thanks for the laughs and frights. For sure would recommend

Ghost tour - Good incarnation and play. Lots of humor and history. We were three stops on the trip, but we never went in anywhere, stood right outside and got good stories.

Where do I even begin with the Gravedigger Tour? - We came in with high hopes—ready to be spooked, thrilled, and regaled with tales of long-dead spirits. Instead, we ended up on a haunted school bus with more body odor than ghost stories. You board this bus with blacked-out windows, which is apparently designed to enhance the “mystery,” but mostly just makes you feel like you’re being kidnapped drama kids with a fog machine. The motion sickness from the completely blacked-out windows? Delightful. Nothing gets you in the mood for a ghost story like trying not to hurl into your neighbor’s lap. Then, just when you think it can’t get weirder—bam! At the end of the tour, they serve you “shots” of what I think was vodka, but may have been a potion brewed in the back of the bus. Now, here’s the kicker: I have a broken foot, and I still considered hopping off that bus and limping 45 minutes back to my hotel like some kind of escapee from a Halloween-themed hostage situation. But alas, we took the bus back—mainly because crawling wasn’t a strong option either. In the end, do we regret it? A little. Will we laugh about it for years? Without question. We didn’t get haunted, but we definitely got a story to tell… I’ll give them two stars—for trying.
