DARK WALES TOURS

About Us

Matthew and Luke started Dark Wales tours in 2019 after many years of conducting Ghost Tours with a successful company called Cardiff History and Hauntings around various locations in South Wales. Both Matthew and Luke have a passion for history and the paranormal and aim to share this passion with others by starting up their own venture.

Dark Wales Tours will give customers exclusive night time access to some of the most historic and haunted sites in the country including the renowned St Fagans Museum and the majestic Cardiff Castle in the capital, alleged to be among the most haunted sites in the country.

All our tours are professionally conducted and explore the History, Myths, Legends and Ghostly phenomena of the various sites. There are no gimmicks and every story told has been faithfully researched and nobody is planted to jump out on us and there are no cheap scares.

On our tours we can't always guarantee anything paranormal will happen of course. Our aim is to give a historic and atmospheric insight to the venues we visit. That being said, a number of strange occurrences have happened on the tours over the years, so you never know what may happen.

So are you brave enough to Join Matthew and Luke on their next tour, where you too may encounter something from beyond our realm and where you'll unlock the secrets and history of this mystical land of Dark Wales...
