Lantern-lit ghost walk at Port Arthur Historic Site, with 19th-century stories, after-hours access, and a Certificate of Bravery and Courage.
“Some of the walkiing was fast paced so wear comfortable shoes to walk in and a light jacket. The walking didn't effect us, but if your elderly I felt the walking was a bit fast, with some slight hills( maybe a little more time is required for this) Overall it was a great experience and a fun tour. Definitely worth doing!”

Nighttime Adelaide Gaol ghost hunt for $32, with real paranormal tools, Murderer’s Row, Governor Ashton, and special access for 2 hours.
“There was very little knowledge on the gaol and it’s ghosts . I went on a similar tour of Adelaide Gaol a decade ago with a different company and it was a far superior experience. I was hoping that I could share that experience with my partner and son, but alas it was not the same. I think it would be better value to do a self guided tour during the day if you want time to explore the venue and its displays.”
