  So if you want a historical tour around Battery Point, with some ghostly tales and extra 4000 steps on your FitBit. Then this is the tour for you.

  A very interesting tour around Hobart. Basically this a walking tour around Battery Point. Our guide Martine told us many historical facts about the Battery Point area's and all the spooky encounters she had.

  More of an historical tour with a creepy ending... We started the tour at least 15 minutes later as we were waiting for a second group. It was fine as the meeting place was the 7D cinema and indoors, so we did escape the July cold. We proceeded from one stop to the next, each place came with the accompanying historical background and tale of apparition sightings. All but two stops were quite unsuspecting from the outside which did add to the atmosphere. Seeing as the stories (even the recent sightings), were second or third hand accounts, it didn't feel as scary but the history was somewhat entertaining. Our guide did well to build suspense but often paused to recount stories accurately and to find the right pictures to present at the right stops. One thing I am funny about is to experience tours lead by guides that are local to the area, I've always found them to add to the feeling of authenticity. I am a keen fan of doing walking tours to orient yourself around new cities and learn their history. I have done many ghost tours in Aus and Europe (not so humble brag), they're a fun activity to do with friends, are a good way of testing your fear threshold and allow you to see another (more sinister) side of a city. Price: fair. Walking pace: easy, plenty of breaks. Scenery: 2 stops were particularly grand and impressive, 2 were creepy. Interaction: some activity to keep engaged. Group size: we were a group of 4 which seemed a good size walking between narrow footpaths etc. Glad that other group of 10 didn't show up as that would've really impacted our experience. Stories: historical but entertaining. 3.5 stars as it came with an awesome recommendation for breakfast.

  I think this is a scam; they cancel tours at the last minute & refuse to return money.

  This was a huge waste of money. Nothing much to do with ghosts more of a historical and real estate lesson. People in our group walked off during the tour. Very boring and a waste of time.

  Our guide was a natural story teller. It normally takes about 2 hours, but tonight it took around 3. Not great problem, as the time goes quickly. Price of $25 each is quite reasonable.
