  A lighthearted one hour walk with tales of the past and some ghost stories. Sprinkled with humour. Good value and you will learn some interesting facts about Skipton.

• 4**A fun and different way to discover Skipton**

  **A fun and different way to discover Skipton** I went on the Skipton Ghost Walking Tour with friends, and overall it was a very enjoyable and different way to spend an evening in Skipton. The guide was enthusiastic, theatrical and full of energy, mixing local history, ghost stories, folklore and plenty of humour as we walked through the old streets, yards and along the canal. My friends particularly enjoyed the jokes and laughed along the way. English is not my first language, and my main difficulty was understanding the guide’s strong local accent. Because the experience relies so much on storytelling, I missed the meaning of quite a lot stories and jokes at the time. Afterwards I read more about some of the places and stories from the tour, and I actually appreciated the experience much more once I understood what she had been talking about. I had initially expected something a little more spooky, but in hindsight we also chose a very bright time of day, which naturally took away some of the ghostly atmosphere. The tour is really a mixture of dark local history, folklore, ghost stories and British humour rather than a “ghost hunt” — and for the price I think it offers very good value. One small suggestion would be a short written summary or QR code with the main stories and locations. It would be really helpful for international visitors or anyone who finds a strong local accent difficult to follow. Overall, a fun, unusual and good-value introduction to another side of Skipton.

• 5Brilliant tour, would highly recommend

  My husband and I booked this tour on a rare child free weekend away in Skipton and we’re not disappointed. From the very beginning, The Butcher was entertaining, engaging and extremely knowledgeable. She had the perfect balance of knowledge, comedy, scary tales and lingering eye contact to make the hour long walk very enjoyable. We purchased the optional emotional support ghosts (to then gift to our children afterwards), and they were a delight, very cute and cuddly, so much so I almost couldn’t pass it on to our 8 year old!
