Local Haunts is concerned with 'bringing the past to life', in and around
Portsmouth - a past, that is interwoven in every brick throughout the City.
Heroes and villains, royalty and rebels - it's all here in Portsmouth!
We operate throughout the year with walks, talks and bus trips in the day time, Tours by Twilight and late night Ghost Bus Tours in the evenings.
We are also available for Weddings, Proms and all Private Hire.
We are the proud owners of Alf, our old London Routemaster Bus, who has been cleaned and painted, and restored to his former glory and he is accompanied by a Tour Guide on every trip.
Recreating history through storytelling, we visit the darker side of the city too, showing historic Portsmouth in a different and somewhat darker light...
