Had an amazing tour with Gil leading the way. Our guide had a great mix of town history along with ghost lore that kept our whole group engaged along the tour. Not to forget the excellent staff managing the storefront!
Gill the Magician was a wonderful story teller and brilliantly knowledgeable of the town's history! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and highly recommend everyone to give it a go if you're in the area.
Wow! What a fun and unique experience. My husband and I booked a tour and we are so happy that we did. Our guide was "Black Widow," and she was AMAZING. Such a great storyteller and so funny. Such a cool way to tour the town and learn about it's history. Would highly recommend!
We had "The Black Widow" and she has set the bar really high for any future tours. The whole experience was made even more captivating by her performance. It seemed to fly by. Highly recommend this tour!
I've done this walk quite a few times. I like it. Adding Gil the Magician gives it a little extra :)Sucks that the story of the hotel was removed from the story. And I think you should try to go a little slower for elderly and disabled. It was difficult to keep up.
We did a tour on Feb 3/24 with the Black Widow. She was an amazing guide. Tour was fun and hit all of the right notes for a ghost walk. Highly recommend!
We had the Black widow as our guide. She was fantastic. I have been on a few of these ghost walks in different cities and she was by far the best. I felt like I had been at a live theatre performance.
What an awesome walk! Very informative and entertaing!! Our guide Gill "The Magician" made our evening suspensful and educational. We were so caught up with our family chit chat and then wnd we didnt get to tip him!! Next visit! Eould like to do the walk in all seasonsHere are a few photos from our walk.
My girlfriend and went for the first time and Regiena Rose was excellent! She was well versed in the stores and approached everything with a fun and energy. We recommend booking a tour if you are in the area. I would pack gloves and a warm hat, but still would do it again in a heartbeat
My Daughter, partner and myself went on the walk this past week. It was not what I expected, it was very informative and the tour guide was awesome and very entertaining, I would highly recommend doing this to anyone coming to visit Notl

Why we are different from other Tours?
A focus on masterful storytelling at a reasonable price (with no hidden fees!). First, we’ve put special attention into respecting the ghost story. Also, with a dedication to traditional styles mixed with natural (and interesting) odd history. This is our specialty since 2003.
I took my son on Daniel's first tour of Dundas and let me say we won't look at the little town the same. My 10 year old hung on his every word. Thank you so much Daniel for such a fun, educational evening. As mentioned, you are a true master of you craft!
Can’t recommend the Dark Trolley tour lead by Ghost Guide Daniel high enough! The tour is the perfect length, the trolley comfortable (better than walking), the scenery and ambiance was perfect and then we get to the incredible stories that were shared. Everything from mobsters to shipwrecks to the war of 1812… There was not a dull moment on this tour. Ghost Guide Daniel is super knowledgeable, friendly and makes history come alive in a fun and entertaining way!
I have had 2 extremely enjoyable events hosted by Daniel who is both highly entertaining and informative. I really enjoyed both the Dark Trolley ride as well as the Haunted Coach/Dundurn castle tour. Both events were chock full of interesting historical information shared by Daniel who has a way of making history both fun and exciting! Think you know Hamilton? Sign up for one or all of the fun-filled events that are sure to entertain and enlighten! I would highly recommend these events, they are an entertaining and pleasant way to spend a few hours learning about Hamilton's past. Events do fill up quickly!Lisette
I have gone on several different ghost walks with this organization and my latest one, at Dundurn Castle, was fantastic as usual. The guide for the bus tour, Daniel, is a great orator and makes the city's rich history come alive with the right mix of humour and horror.I love learning about local history and its darker side, and every single tour I've done with Ghost Walks has been endlessly interesting and spurred me on to do further research in the legends and stories they tell.The tour is reasonably priced and always has a spooky atmosphere. The guides are always super knowledgeable and so friendly and easy to talk to.The driver of our palatial bus was named Al and he was an absolute delight. Charming as heck and tops at maneuvering that behemoth around hairpin turns.5 stars all around, a real treat.
My family and I went on the Ghost Walk bus/castle tour of Dundurn Castle in Hamilton last night. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend it! The bus tour guide and bus driver were a blast and the staff at the castle were very friendly and informative too. A wonderful experience to hear ghost stories while driving in a comfortable coach bus through the city and so much fun to explore and ghost hunt in the castle afterwards. Perfect evening! Thank you all!
We did the Hermitage forest walk Halloween Weekend, almost full moon and it was perfect. Our guide Geoff was a fantastic story teller and the experience was one of the best ghost walks I've ever. Did I mention how inexpensive it is vs the Toronto ones? I did manage to catch a photo of one if the spirits, you can decide if it's real or but do due this walk if you like adventure!
I’ve done three different ghost tour through Hamilton Ghost Walks and I recommend them to anyone interested in local history or celebrating spooky season. This year my mom and I did the Dundurn Castle tour and it was fantastic and well worth the money. Daniel is my favourite ghost guide!
It was a really nice experience over all: the only down side is I wish we actually got to spend time at each location and get out and explore the locations even if it was only for 15mins.
My friend and I took our daughters on the Dundurn Castle and guided bus tour! We all had an amazing time! Daniel, our guide, was so entertaining with his stories and offered so many historical facts !! Lots of fun! I definitely recommend this tour
