Great fun - We went as a family of four,children aged 8 & 11. We all laughed from start to finish. Absolutely brilliant and would recommend to everyone! The conductor was absolutely brilliant, he is as mad as a box of frogs. We thought he was very knowledgeable and his story telling was easy to follow. We are from Edinburgh and hope to try the Edinburgh Ghost bus tour at some point.

The most wackiest ghost tour we have done! - Highly recommend this tour. We laughed from getting on to getting off. I won't spoil things but the conductor absolutely made it for us. He has got to be the funniest, most wacky, unhinged conductor EVER. Get there early as we arrived at 7 and were first in the queue but within 5 minutes the bus was full! We took tons of pics and got some great ones with the conductor. Absolutely brilliant!

Laughed so much, and very informative - Easy to access the bus stop right next to York station we chose the bottom deck and did enjoy it as we had a few more interactions with the conductor. John was fantastic in creating a hilarious, awkward, sarcastic character. If you like dry humour then this is a must do activity. He was also very informative, about Yorks history. The driver was great too, and also a safe behind the wheel. 10/10 would recommend!

Hilarious - An hour of laughter- the tour was extremely entertaining!! Frank and Bob were a great duo and thoroughly enjoyed the comical driving. A few young children on the bus were a little scared but we found the tour hilarious as adults. Definitely a talking point of our trip to York 😋 thank you very much!!
