A must do when in Freo - Fascinating place, guide was informative happy to answer your questions. Great experience!. So interesting to get the convict story behind the building and to know it was still operating in the 90's pretty much in its current form.

Worth it. All tourists pls go - Our guide was great. Perfect and simple English in the story-telling of the various crimes. Easy to follow for our kids in the range of 11 to 17yo. Humorous and engaging!

Behind the scenes in our sordid history. - Was such a great experience - our guide was awesome & entertaining. Bonus was we had a history buff in our group so that was some extra details & banter that made our time extra fun. Couldn’t recommend this company or event enough! Can’t wait to do them all in Sydney and now up and down on the east coast where we live. Book yourself a great time & enjoy the dark side of Australian history!!

So worth it - I have lived here my whole life and had no idea of the Crime stories Fremantle had. The tour was so good and the tour guide was exceptional. Me and my friend scored a private tour as it was only her and I that was there so i feel like we got the best tour.

Dark stories revealed - It was great to learn about some of the ‘dark’ history of Fremantle. We booked this tour because it was something different and we weren’t sorry. Jason shared a number of stories and was very approachable and knowledgeable.
