I would personally recommend the Ghost Tour around the moray place, some very interesting stories, Our Ghost Tour Guide Andrew was very helpful when we wanted to know questions. Our night was great with the weather it rain which it made more interesting and spooky. I booked this night for my 40 th which is scary enough, my friends that... More

I was initially a little sceptical about doing the tour but all doubts quickly disappeared. I'd highly recommend it to tourists & locals alike. I'd hoped for spooky & our guide didn't fail to deliver. As a former Dunedinite I was also surprised to learn a lot I didn't already know about the dark history of the Octagon. Very interesting...

Being a Dunedin resident for the last 32 years, I thought I knew this city well, but wow did I learn some fascinating things about Dunedin doing this tour. My friend (tourist) and I did this and we really had a great time! We were well entertained and it was well worth the money. I don't really think it would... More

I booked the town tour for my daughter's eleventh birthday party and what a hit. I did have a couple of girls clinging to me going around but they all enjoyed it. Andrew made the stories not too scarey and kept their attention the whole way around which was hard when there were thirteen of them!! I loved the huge... More

Myself and my partner have been on both the city walk and the Northern cemetery walks. Andrew is a fantastic guide who is very knowledgeable on Dunedin. The tours are not only great for those interested in some very eerie stories but also for anyone wanting to know more of Dunedin's history. I would recommend these tours to anyone visiting... More

Hi We took your ghostwalk tour on the 9th. Nik was a wonderful guide. He was brilliant, as it was myself and 4 13year old boys. They all really loved it and spoke of it for days. Nik captured their attention at vital moments. It was fascinating, and interesting at the same time to think we all walk past these... More

Being a bit of a cynic/skeptic, I was less enthused about this than my husband. BUT to be honest there is not much else to do in Dunedin. My husband kept telling me what great reviews it had and that a friend at work had recommended it. So I decided to go along. It was great! We didn't see any... More

I signed up for the tour on a Monday night in December and was the only participant. Normally, operators would cancel but not at Hair Raiser! Andrew is dedicated to his work and he went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied. I had an amazing time. He catered to my special interests and I have some... More

I was looking for something different to do with the kids while in Dunedin and knew that mine would be thrilled to do a ghost tour. My kids were 5 and 8 and our guide knew how to make it really fun for them, to the amusement of the adults. There's so much history around every corner, really interesting stuff.... More

It was a very cold and wintery night, so there were only 3 of us on the tour. Andrew is a great guide - full of information about Dunedin's history, and happy to answer any questions. You certainly get to explore some dark and mysterious spots in Dunedin - places I would never consider visiting at night on my own!... More
