I joined the Newcastle Dark Stories True Crime Tour solo and was thoroughly impressed. The guide was knowledgeable, witty, and highly interactive—cleverly weaving humour into chilling tales while making sure everyone felt included. Her storytelling brought Newcastle’s dark history to life in a way that was both entertaining and informative. A great experience for solo travellers and true crime fans alike!
Our tour guide, Jade, made it extremely fun and interactive. She was very knowledgeable and animated in telling us true crimes stories. Highly recommend! (Hope your boss buys you a drink! 😝)
Such a great tour. Emily was a fantastic host, sharing extra stories and great chat. And the puns! 😂 Not to Blunt but the tour definitely Rocked, we were Hanging on every word. Do yourself a favour if you’re in Sydney and enjoy history or true crime, book with Dark Stories
Terrible experience. Hyped up to something it certainly wasn't. Sound was too loud in the headphones, container was so hot and stuffy. Very disappointed and did not last the whole time either, glad it didn't cost too much. Wouldn't recommend.
Definitely recommend the experience. Caitlin was a fantastic tour guide.
