THE LOST SOULS OF GASTOWN TOUR

If you’ve never joined us for a tour before, we recommend starting with our most popular experience: The Lost Souls of Gastown Tour. This unique history tour is led by an actor in character, transporting you to Victorian-era Gastown. Part theatre, part tour: we guarantee you’ll never look at Gastown the same again!
