Murder & Mayhem Tour – CANCELLED

September 4, 2022 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

CANCELLED – unfortunately the ground conditions have not dried out sufficiently to run our tours safely.

Karori Cemetery is the final resting place for people whose lives ended tragically – from drowning, from murder, and from accidents of all kinds. This tour includes the story of three militia men killed in a guncotton explosion; a man who murdered his two small children; an attempted murder followed by suicide; a drowning or two; a man sentenced to be hanged but released from jail 8 years later; shipwreck victims, accidental deaths, and many more.

Tours are $10 per person (children under 12 free) + booking fee.

We are now using electronic ticketing, please follow the link to book:

Note:

If we have to cancel a tour due to inclement weather or sickness, we will notify you on the day of the tour by 9am by email and on our Facebook page. The booking fee is non-refundable.

Please dress appropriately for the conditions. While we do our best to guide you on a safe walking route, during the winter months the ground can become slippery in places.

Some of our walks require a moderate degree of fitness and are not suited for those with limited mobility. Please read the tour descriptions carefully to check that they will be suitable for you.

We look forward to welcoming you to Karori Cemetery.
