Murders, executions, crimes and punishments!

This guided walking tour takes place every Friday. A bit of a thriller, this tour focuses on the macabre side of life in the Garrison and includes a trip through the mysterious Garrison Tunnels!

The 2.5km walk starts and finishes at George Washington House, with ‘Check-in’ at the Events Ticket Booth (far left-hand corner of the car park). Starting at 6:45pm and lasting approximately 2 hours, there is a water-stop about halfway through and we suggest bringing a torch (flash light) and suitable shoes for walking on grass and sandy tracks.

The tour will also explain:

• Details of the construction of the unfinished Garrison Fortress 1789 – 1793
• How ‘Graves End Beach’ got its name.

You will also experience several short dramas en route including:

• A re-enactment of the execution by firing squad of a freed slave at the Military Cemetery
• The unsolved John Hislop murder of 1809.

Prices are: Adults US$15, Child US$10. Advanced booking is recommended.
