Halloween River Cruise Aboard the Vintage Hauntsman
Something Spooky is Stirring on the Norfolk Broads... This Halloween, the Norfolk Broads are taking a darker turn as Broads Tours’ Spooky Boogie sets sail from Wroxham aboard the suitably transformed Vintage Hauntsman. Join us for two and a half hours of frightfully good fun, Halloween classics, dancing after dark and a fully licensed bar serving some devilishly tempting drinks. Fancy dress is positively encouraged, so dust off the cobwebs, summon your best costume and prepare for a Halloween night out with a difference.The Experience
