Silly tour you must try! - This was an absolutely silly tour, but good fun with some interesting characters and stories. It was just long enough and was well worth the money paid.

Fun Time - Went for the tour to celebrate my friend's graduation, It was real fun, and the two staff members, John and Bob, were great. Would definitely go again!

Amazing and Hilarious Experience - What an amazing experience! Scary and funny at the same time! The tour guide Frank was funny and creepy telling everyone lots of spooky tales about the city and the bus driver was wild, crazy, scary and funny with his whacky driving and him trying to frighten the passengers. Definitely recommend to anyone it's fun and a great experience in York to try out.

Spooky, silly and loads of fun! - Went with my 14 year old who loves spooky stuff and audience-participation theatre, so this was perfect! The guide was loads of fun, engaging and really hilarious. Lots of spooky stories but didn’t get too frightening. Definitely the kind of thing that only works if you really throw yourself into it and don’t take yourself too seriously!

Enjoyable - Enjoyed the bus tour. Was worried the conducter was going to fall of the bus at times, even though this was part of the act. Laughed alot. Really enjoyed the experience

Haunted Bus Tour - Children aged 9 and 12 loved this thought the conductor and Bob was hilarious especially the driving. Prob could do with a bit more structure especially when we had to miss part out due to roadworks that staff was unaware of.

Trip was cancelled with 1.5 hours notice - Bus tour cancelled with 1.5 hours notice What a shame , I wish they had informed me earlier before I had already headed into the city and had a wasted trip

Fix your speakers and bus - If you could hear the commentary above the whine of the differential or if some of the speakers worked could have made it enjoyable
