We had a knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide and, although I was initially disappointed that this was clearly meant to be be "fun" rather than "spooky" I found myself caught up in the stories and had an amazing time. It would be useful if the local restaurants etc. which are used as landmarks for the meeting point directions knew the tours and could help guests to find them.”
