5Interesting experience
Interesting tour, about the right length of time at 90 mins. Wear a coat gets chilly on the quay!
5Excellent tour taken to the next level by amazing guide Mark
Mark gave us an excellent spooky tour of Ilfracombe on a warm evening in August. Both kids were suitably spooked and inspired! Without giving anything away, the tour was family friendly, sensitively grizzly and made for a great family experience.
4Fantastic value for money and very interesting
We enjoyed listening to all the stories and history of the harbour. Some of which were really interesting, it was a misty night which added to the atmosphere! The guide was really good however we were a little disappointed ot to learn about the morgue which now serves as a pub next door to the George and Dragon. Never the less we had a brilliant time and worth every penny.
5Kids now converted to spooky
Mark was a great tour guide! We over booked and he accommodate our group on another date. Turning our kids from a walking tour being boring to wanting to go on more ghost tours. They learnt loads of history too so even better, got some exercise and time off their phones (until we got back and they wanted to watch all the ghost hunting videos). Thank you Mark definitely a high point of our holiday so far. We can't wait to see if we can make other events you run.
5Brilliant history tour!
The Ilfracombe history tour was fantastic and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in discovering more about Ilfracombe. Mark was extremely knowledgeable and brought the history to life with fascinating stories, interesting facts and plenty of local detail. Thanks for a great evening!
