It was truly one of the best highlights of my trip. It’s in the the evening and it was raining slightly which made it more spooky. Our guide Jason told the stories Ike it was his first time. HIGHLY recommend!!!

Had a wonderful date night learning about Victoria’s history and how it tied into paranormal activity. Jason was our guide and he was an excellent story teller - the right combo of historian and comedian. A lovely evening!
