South Wales is rich in tradition, local folklore and ghost stories that have been passed down through generations. Each walk delves into these accounts with a strong focus on real history, atmospheric settings and authentic reports of the unexplained — from castle legends and mining tragedies to spirits said to haunt coastal paths, churchyards and old town streets.
Whether you’re curious, sensitive to the paranormal or simply love history, our experiences are crafted to be welcoming and engaging for everyone. You are free to join in with the investigative elements — or watch from the edges and enjoy the stories as they unfold.
Our events are not designed to terrify. Instead, we build atmosphere through storytelling, site history and genuine accounts shared across time. Expect intrigue, curiosity and connection to a darker Welsh past — not jump scares or theatrics.
What to expect:
• Atmospheric history & storytelling
• Small group experience
• Optional paranormal participation
• No chasing, jump scares or forced involvement
• A curious, immersive evening for all
“Myself and partner really enjoyed our ghost/history walk around Cardiff. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable – I learned quite a lot about Cardiff that I didn’t know before and I’ve lived here all my life! Definitely recommend the tour."
Perhaps unsurprisingly, given its long past, South Wales is home to many haunted sites. Join Extours and discover the forgotten, often darker side of the region’s history.
"Just back from a Ghost Walk in Chepstow with Ben. I was really impressed with his knowledge of local history and found that, along with the ghost tales, really interesting. Using the equipment was really good – the spirit box was my highlight. I would definitely recommend the walk and I’m keen to go on more"
