    Well done Shiverpool

    We went on a Shiverpool ghost tour as a group with our organisation, and what an amazing experience it was! Our guides, Chiller Black and her sister, were absolutely fantastic. Their storytelling, acting, and knowledge of the city were incredible. They had us all mesmerised from start to finish! We loved seeing our own city in a completely different light. We learned so much about the history and stories behind places we walk past every day without ever really noticing them. It was fascinating to discover a whole new side to somewhere we thought we knew so well. As a group activity, it was brilliant! We laughed, screamed, jumped, and experienced everything in between. The atmosphere was fantastic, and the guides made the whole experience engaging, entertaining, and memorable for everyone. A huge well done to Shiverpool, Chiller Black, and her sister for making the tour so special. We came away knowing more about our city than we did before, with plenty to talk about and some great memories to share. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun, different, and memorable group activity. We loved every minute of it! 👻

    Great fun for all

    Excellent event. Really interesting, a few scares when you least expect them snd great interactive experience all down to presenters/guides!! So much energy, knowledge and fun with it - you will jump and laugh and learn. Would highly recommend this if visiting or even live here - lasts approx 90mins and very glad I did it as there were many talking points afterwards. Great fun event & presenters energy and interactions just make it an overall excellent experience.

    Chiller tour

    This was an amazing experience, from start to finish, although I have never known a corpse measured arms width for your coffin. Both ladies were good and entertaining throughout the whole experience. There was little or no effort required to participate. All participants were entertained. I won’t give away what actually when on , as it would ruin your experience. It’s definitely worth booking.

    Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Liverpool.

    How much does Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $27 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Liverpool usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Liverpool is not rushed.

    Is Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 211 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Liverpool, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 74 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Liverpool can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Liverpool and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Liverpool Hidden History and Dead House Evening Walking Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Liverpool within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Liverpool?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Liverpool experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Liverpool: "Blue Route" - City & Beatles Tour, Liverpool Ghost Walking Tour, Downtown Liverpool Walking Tour - In Spanish. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Liverpool?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Liverpool?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
