Participating is easy and FREE! From your mobile device visit the App Store or Google Play and download the FREE ON-FOOT app and choose the Olde Amherstburg Ghost Tour. The Tour can be downloaded prior to your visit to Amherstburg or right on site. Follow the directions to your first stop and the tour will begin!

When touring, remember to be aware of your surroundings and to cross at designated crosswalks. If you choose to use the guided route function, the map will identify the location of tour stops and provide directions to your next location. However, if you’ve used GPS in a city you’ll know GPS doesn’t always work the way it should, especially around tall buildings. If you ever reach a destination and the story doesn’t automatically play you can click the location on the map to trigger the story.

Happy haunting and enjoy the tour.
