Tips & Advice

  • Wear comfortable walking shoes as the tour involves navigating uneven terrain and inclines, especially to the cemetery.
  • Bring a flashlight or use your phone's light for better visibility during the lantern-lit portions of the tour.
  • Dress in layers, as evenings in Lunenburg can be cool, even during the summer months.
  • Arrive at the starting point at 15 King Street a few minutes early to check in and get settled.
  • Be prepared for a journey that includes a walk up to the cemetery; it's a bit of a climb but offers great views and spooky atmosphere.
