Friends of Karori Cemetery - Murder & Mayhem Tour
We will be running this tour on Sunday 7th May 10:30am - 12:00pm
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; an attempted murder followed by suicide; a drowning or two plus other exciting stories.
Each tour is $10 per person (plus non-refundable booking fee). Children under 12 are free.
