Spine tingling - We'd like to express our thanks to Warren for the tour on Friday night. It was most interesting to hear about the ghost stories, particularly the events at Luna Park in the 1970s. The informative and informal nature of the tour added to our enjoyment of The Rocks.

Ghosts and the rocks - Went on Halloween and it was amazing. The guy was very knowledgeable. We toured through the rocks and got to see all these cool haunted spots, and there was a good amount of walking, but it was easy to walk and the site that we saw were super cool.

The tour was about a... - The tour was about a history, the life and death of people that you will not learn through books. This gives the Rocks a true authenticity.

Kids loved it and the adults had a great time! - Was a fantastic experience for my 8 and 12 year olds as well as the adults. Suitably informative and scary but not too much. Wazza knows a lot of history of the area and touches base with the locals to keep updated about any changes to paranormal activity. Was a lovely evening, full of history, anecdotes and humour. A great way to experience Sydney, whether you're a local or a visitor. The crowd was small so it was perfect to hear Wazza and fit in as much as we could.

Operator Was A No Show - Sadly, the tour did not happen. Arriving at the meeting place prior to appointed time, no one was around. Messaging the operator through the Viator messaging app 3 times, we received no response. Left 20 minutes after the stated start time. Just sad as I had one night in Sydney and couldn’t find another tour.
