Traveler reviews
Not as advertised. Poor experience
I should’ve known better than to book with Viatar. My experiences with them in the past have been bad. The guide predominantly spoke German as her first language, so did not communicate a lot of things clearly. Also was not able to develop a spooky tone using German accent . We were dragged all the way to the tower of London through the Underground just to hear a five minute story and to have her tell us all about how to review her and how to get more tours. It was a waste of time to go that far. Stating facts that you can find in a tour book or at the actual locations is not my idea of a ghost tour. You would think in London, there would be a plethora of history from which to pull good stories. And if you don’t know the historical answer, who cares make a good story out of it. I wish I had taken a Jack the Ripper tour with someone else.
Detailed History Tour
This is really more of a history tour. Our guide shared incredibly detailed stories of events in each place and we learned a lot. Some of the stops were a little too long, but I appreciate how much was shared.
Lots of fun
Lots of fun unique stories about London hauntings. Our guide Arne was fantastic as he brought the stories to life.
Disappointing and Not as Advertised
Rather disappointing. Interesting as a walking tour around some iconic London landmarks and parks, but not enough about ghosts and where was the 20 min tube journey mentioned in the description?! Tour guide was entertaining and informative but most of the stories were about murders rather than ghosts. The tour also only lasted approx 1 hour and 10 minutes (due to the 20 minute tube journey) and not 2 hours 30 mins as stated.
