Perfect mix of fun and scary.

We had a fantastic time on the Ghost Bus Tour! It was the perfect mix of fun and scary. The bus was great, the spooky facts were really interesting, and our tour guide, Cedric, was entertaining from start to finish. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a unique and memorable experience!

Potential but ultimately a letdown

Unfortunately, this particular tour was not worth the time nor the money. Admittedly, London was in the middle of a heatwave which made the bus borderline sweltering. In addition, there was some police action which closed off the usual route and forced the driver to find a different way. Perhaps this may have thrown off our guide who made the already uncomfortable tour truly near miserable. This particular guide spoke incessantly for the entire two hours and ten minutes without a break or a breath. Yet most of what he discussed had little to nothing to do with spirits, local history or anything particularly ghost-related. The few times he did dive into one of these topics, he would never quite finish the story. Rather he talked, seemingly nonstop, about a fictitious grandfather, a spirit on the bus and some fire at the bus depot. In between these odd somewhat non-sequitirs, he repeated over and over that “we’re fine”. If he would cut his comedy by 99%, replace the family history and concerns over our safety with actual local history and ghost stories and allow the occasional moments of silence - it would be a good tour. My family and I have gone on dozens of ghost tours. It is a tradition whenever we travel. This is the first negative review I have left.
