Very informative tour, loved hearing all the stories of the inmates and their crimes. Wish we had seen some ghosts though!

I did enjoy the tour however it seemed more of an historical tour of the gaol, not a ghost tour, it also seemed like lots of talking and little time to use the ghost instruments. Even though the information was interesting, I think a little less info and more time to use the gadgets would be nice, just the speech at the start takes ages before you even enter the gaol. I guess I was just expecting it to be more ghost stuff.
