This wasn't one of our best ideas. We went on this ghost tour on a cold, but fortunately dry November night. Is walking through the Cathedral graveyard and up a few local lanes supposed to be scary? I suppose it must have been for some hysterical, attention seeking idiots who burst into tears and left the tour like drama queens.... More

Thank you for your review. I am sorry that the walk did not meet your expectations. I note that you are only now posting the review even though you did the walk 7 months ago. However, I am pretty confident I know the precise walk to which you are referring because fortunately it is very rare indeed for disruption to... More

We did the Ghost walk combined with an evening meal at the Mulberry Tree Restaurant (definitely visit the restaurant if you have the chance - awesome food!). It was a fun evenings entertainment - not something we'd done before but thought we'd give it a go. It was very well done and really interesting - I was hoping I'd be... More

A really interesting and informative walk. Not scary, although a little creepy on occasions. Great way to hear some local history stories in a very interesting and informative way. Recommended!

I booked this tour for a group of 6 after seeing the good reviews. The reviews are correct. Jim is a great host and extremely knowledgable about the local history and told some good spooky stories which get you looking over your shoulder. Very entertaining overall!! Thanks to Jim and thanks to Pete for protecting us from the ghosts :)

We went on the Llandaff ghost walk in early April. The tour started at 830pm and although it wasn't quite dark yet, Jim's interesting stories soon had us looking over our shoulders! We thought he was an excellent storyteller, mixing local history with the paranormal and pitched it just right. It was creepy, atmospheric but thoroughly enjoyable. Make sure you... More

I went on Llandaff ghost walk in January. Found it to be a very interesting experience. The story teller Jim, tells ghost stories, mixed in with history and theories behind the paranormal experiences. The atmosphere that is created is amazing, I have also had the fortune of listening to Jim at a recent conference and again, could listen to the... More

I was nervous to start with but as our tour guide led us along he explained in detail the historic side it was both interesting and spooky too. I recommend any one into past history and spiritual siteings go and treat yourself its an eye opener.

My friends bought this as a different birthday experience - and it was a very different experience! The tour starts at the Cathedral and goes down into an empty field and around the Taff trail - ending up in the very spooky graveyard. Jim the tour guide is an excellent leader and really ups the atmosphere with his stories of... More

Several times on this walk I got the 'cold shiver' and it was not because of the weather! Jim is the consumate story teller and made the experience genuinely eerie in the surroundings of Llandaff Cathedral the River Taff and of course the graveyard. This is one walk I would thoroughly recommend, it was well worth the fee which is... More
