BRILLIANT - I took my 9 year old niece on this tour and it was absolutely brilliant! Our tour guide was Damien and he was just stellar! A born entertainer and the kids just loved him, as did the adults, he had us all hanging on his every word. The tour is really good fun for the adults too and you do learn quite a bit in a really fun way. There are macabre stories, tons of participation from the guests and we spent the whole rest of the day doing the Ghostbusters dance. (I actually caught myself still doing it next morning with my fingers on the commute to work!) It’s very engaging. I would recommend this for both tourists and for Dubliners themselves, it’s really good fun. My niece is quite timid but she was seat-dancing right along beside me and full of energy and enthusiasm throughout. It’s a great way to learn a bit of history with the kids and have some fun and laughs. The content is appropriate too. We’re Dubliners and my niece has already asked if I will take her on the tour again later this year so it was a huge success for a first time Auntie!

Great family fun. - Great activity for the kids. Damian was a great host and I'd like to say a personal thank you to Francis the bus driver for his kindness and patience towards my daughter who was a little afraid to get on the bus in the beginning. I would highly recommend this tour to any families visiting Dublin.

Engaging, Educational, Fun and Spooky - My son is 8 years old and had a great time. It’s very well thought out to engage you during the entire bus tour. A lot of history mixed in with mythology and the spooky. I highly recommend this

Epiphany on the ghostbus - The children had a lot of fun, even though they didn't understand the English language well! The actor was excellent and above all engaging. Even us adults appreciated it, everything was taken care of in detail!

Great Day Out - Wasn't really sure how the kids would react to this tour as the buzz of Halloween has passed and we're now on the Christmas countdown but any worries I had quickly disapperared as soon as we stepped on the bus. Scary Jimmy must be the friendliest and also the funniest Ghost in Dublin! The kids loved him and managed to keep them entertained throughout the whole tour not.once did we get is it over yet! Driver Francis was great with the kids too so.pleasant as we got on The bus itself is like a haunted house so got the kids excited as soon as they seen it:) Definitely recommend this tour with the kids and amytime of the year they will have a blast:)

Thoroughly enjoyable Ghostbus Kids Tour - A wonderful afternoon spent with the family on the Ghostbus Kids Tour in Dublin yesterday. Frances, our driver was so friendly and she made us all feel very welcome on boarding the bus. Our tour guide “Scary Jimmy” was absolutely fantastic! Told plenty of spooky stories & interesting facts throughout the tour - all of which were pitched perfectly for the kids and kept them captivated, engaged and just the right level of scared!!!! Threw in a good few “in jokes” and some adult humour to keep the parents amused too. Jimmy made sure that every child participated and was interacting - through a fun quiz (two teams - werewolves v vampires), the use of props (the torture devices were a hit!) and during the Ghostbusters themed ghost hunt through Merrion Square. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the Ghostbus Kids Tour and gave it a big thumbs up! Highly recommended.

9 year old gives it a Thumbs Up! - Would def recommend - for Dubliners and non Dubliners alike. The bus looks pretty cool on the inside Damian the guide told spooky stories on history and literature supported by plenty of props. He was kind to all the kids on the bus, and included everyone - Francis the driver got in on the action too. Thanks a mil, both!

We were ghosted by the ghost bus - No memories as bus tour was cancelled and they dud not bother to inform us. They were very enthusiastic about getting our money though with daily emails about payment for a tour that wasn’t running
