This was a fun and entertaining tour. I feel like there could have been so much more to it, but I get that they are limited on time and have to be family friendly so maybe that is why but it feels like they just glance over some things and could go way more into depth. But it was still entertaining, I did learn stories I did not know about, but it wasn't as spooky as it was goofy so it is good for kids for sure. I would have loved a more adult dark version. But easy to find and was a great activity for our vacation.

Kinda hokey, but a fun way to get a quick drive by of the city. One stop in the cemetery, otherwise you don't get off the bus. I really enjoyed it until the end when the focus went to the haunting of the bus. It was cringe. My 13 yr old daughter liked it and it will be something we laugh about in the future!

Tom was a gem!!!!! We had a blast, the bus was so cool, and Tom was both informative and entertaining... Loved his quick wit and dry humor. We were sad to leave the bus, I could have ridden around with him all night long.

Went on that The Ghost Bus Tour in Edinburgh a couple of weeks ago now..We laughed from start to finish. We had the fabulous tour guide -Tommy Terror He tells ghostly stories of the past, but makes it interesting, entertaining and funny. A must tour attraction whilst visiting Edinburgh. You also get off the bus and visit a graveyard. Tour lasted about an HR and easy to find pick up point. Just don't be late! We did the late bus tour -young children may find this a bit scary. Thanks Tommy for being a great guide. 👻💀🪦🚌
