Extremely disappointed Was late turning up, Wasn’t what the pictures showed or how it was described Bus was falling apart, Curtains wouldn’t close to make the bus dark, the lights and interior were falling apart Random unpaid guests were able to join in whilst off the bus for a talk

We loved everything about it. Frank and Bob where hilarious. The bus had a great feel to it. Frank was very informative and we found it all very interesting. The way he delivered all the info was hilarious. He had endless energy and was just fantastic. Theyre both absolute gems. X

We enjoyed the comedy aspect of the tour but feel that at some points they could have utilised additional characters to make it more comical

A brilliant way to spend your evening in York. The conductor was very funny whilst also providing plenty of information about the historical points passed by on the ride. I would highly recommend Ghost Bus Tours. Just make sure you get to the front of the queue for the best seats!
