A must experience, historic and well presented tour. - The two young men, our guides, were exceptional in their presentation, knowledge, and care in keeping the company together and ensuring safety from marauding ghosts and walking on broken graves. Both young men spoke internationally accepted standard English and were adept at character acting when speaking as though they were characters long since buried. I consider this tour in the hands of such hosts to be a highlight of the Brisbane night.

Brilliant spooky history tour - This tour was so great. Our tour guides were brilliant and so knowledgeable. They also spent the time after the tour to chat to us about our experience and other tours around the city. I could have spoken to Harley and Jean for hours! Can't recommend this tour and this company enough!

Presenters for the night... - Presenters for the night did a great job with atmosphere and the information was great. Educational without knowing your learning.

Wonderful and highly worth it! - Absolutely worth it! Wonderful experience! There's a lot of walking up and down hills so might not be accessible for some. Highly recommend.

Rewarding - The stories of the residents. Made me want to delve more into the history of Brisbane. Did not know of the fate of the last man to be executed or of his visitor who still leaves flowers on his grave.

Tales from the grave - The history was super interesting. The guide keep us safe and no ghost attacked us. The animals are noisy. The sensor motion lights ruin the vibe slightly and it would be better if we didn't come across another group.

2 hours of standing for a history lesson - The tour was good but it was more of a history lesson then a scary ghost tour. More stories regarding how people died than ghost experiences had in the cemetery. Be prepared to stand in the one spot for long periods of time as the hosts speak extremely slow ( for dramatic effect ) By the end of the 2 hours people were just sitting on the road, gutter or dirt.

Disappointed - I did this tour many years ago and it was great, Yesterday I decided to arrange a date night with my partner who has never experienced this tour before. However we were extremely disappointed. Our tour guide was in experienced didn't know where he was going half of the time, didn't know the full names of the deceased, such as Jack the rippers full name, Did not know the actual name of the beer that William Macnaughton Galloway drank, the guide said he drank triple XXX LoL. The tour is meant to last for 2 hours and it last for 1.5 hours. We did not see everything like the book we got handed to us at the end, Basically it was like a primary school excursion.

Fun but unfortunate - Whilst my partner and kids had a blast once in there, it was upsetting that I was denied entry due to my choice of footwear. Frustrated that I couldn’t join them, I didn’t argue the point and told them to go on ahead with out me- waited outside and watched as the same guide let in another young lady who had sandles on - I can swallow my pride and admit that I chose the wrong shoes. But for guides to pick and choose who they let it. It’s sad.
