Glad we booked it! - The tour was recommended by a friend who visited recently. Glad we went and didn’t base it off how many stars. Loved the history that tied into the ghosts and of Sydney itself. Wasn’t sure what to expect but definitely different than your typical tourist attractions. Guide kept our attention and made sure the whole group stayed together… even the stragglers. Would recommend if you want to learn more unique things about Sydney and not deal with as many people like daytime trips.

Entertaining and informative walk - The guide was engaging and fun. Got to learn about the darker side of Sydney’s past. I especially liked learning about the tragedy of the Ghost Train fire.

FUN, NOT SPOOKY, GHOST TOUR - Definitely not a spooky "ghost" tour if that's what you're after but a nice way to explore the back streets of The Rocks and hear some interesting stories of events that are part of The Rocks colourful history. The archaeological dig of the homes demolished during the years of the plague was an unexpected addition and probably worth a revisit in the daylight, if time permitted. Our guide Georgia was very enthusiastic and quite theatrical in her delivery of the tour. She allowed plenty of time at the photo-opportunity spots and kept the walking to an appropriate pace taking into consideration all of the group. There were some stairs involved and plenty of cobblestoned streets, but overall the tour should be manageable for both old and young.

Fun experience - Fun experience & different from a previous one we have been on. Good to hear more tours inside buildings are about to start eg the pub visits.

I'm a skeptic but loved the tour - The history behind the stories. Seeing old parts of Sydney I wouldn't do by myself at night time. The guide was wonderful

Good stories, but not enough stops - Good stories, but not enough stops for the time and walking. It was drizzling, so maybe that impacted the walk.
