5Ghostly goings on in Gloucester
Enjoyed a really fascinating walking tour with Becki on a Saturday evening learning not only about the ghosts but also the local history of Gloucester (and there is a lot of it). I have lived in Gloucestershire for over 5 years now and we were shown lots of little nooks and crannies that I never knew existed, let alone the accompanying spooky history. Enjoyed doing the interactive experiments along the way which led to an unusual photo taken by my friend - very interesting! The dark (but dry) evening certainly added to the atmosphere. Highly recommended 👍.
5Spooky and Historical too!
An interesting experience, booked for hubby's birthday surprise. Lovely Beki, Ghosts Gloucester Girl, brought him a very spooky present! So unexpected and kind. But it wasn't just the evening... The ghost walk led us to share our spooky experiences with other family. Nice! 👻 And it certainly is revealing; thought provoking, with plenty that's historical ☠️
4A little info.
Information packed with an attentive, fun and knowledgeable guide. For those who can’t hear so well, advise using hearing aids or standing very close to the guide, who speaks very quickly. Easy walking. Considerable standing around at each interesting post.
5Becki is Brilliant
Becki was lovely, helpful and happy to reschedule when things went wrong on our first attempt to get there! She shared so many stories about the city, and was thoroughly knowledgeable when it came to local history - and hauntings!! We were given plenty of opportunity to ask questions, and options on whether to stop for longer in certain spots (or miss bits out if we had wanted to). We are really keen to do another walk with her next month.
3Would be more exciting if...
Would be more exciting if buildings could be accessed. Very interesting history which we all enjoyed.
5Fun and Fascinating
A really interesting and informative experience with Becki. There was much about my home city of Gloucester that I as unaware of. Such a rich and fascinating history…..with some notable ghostly encounters to discuss.

About Cotswolds
The Cotswolds are a range of limestone hills west of Oxford, dotted with honey-coloured villages, wool-merchants' churches and stone-walled pastures.
The Cotswold hills run from south-west to north-east across Gloucestershire and into Oxfordshire, Wiltshire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire, rising gently from the east and falling in a steep escarpment to the west. Medieval wool made the area rich, and the merchants' money built grand churches and villages of honey-coloured limestone, from Bibury, where the cottages of Arlington Row front a trout stream, to Burford, Chipping Campden and Bourton-on-the-Water.
