The Darker Side Of Cardiff - A Walking Tour

It’s an orientation tour of Cardiff that takes you into the darker past of the capital city of Wales.

This professionally guided Cardiff walking tour, led by a Wales Official Tourist Guide, sees us visiting, over the two hours and two miles walked, some of the major landmarks as well as locations infamous for dark deeds, hauntings and miscarriages of justice.

By the end of the tour, you will have a mental map of the city centre, and some tall tales told that will certainly not ease you into a good night's sleep… But that’s what this tour is all about! Unsettling tales and spooky occurrences. You will be regaled with stories of murders, restless spirits, the innocent hanged and of people that disappeared, never to be seen again…

The tour begins at the main entrance of Cardiff Castle and ends two hours later, just over the road from the castle entrance, at The Rummer, Cardiff’s most haunted pub. Here, you are invited to remain for a pint with your guide, or you can continue your exploration of Cardiff on your own… If you dare ;)
