Great tour guide

5.00I had a great time. I really hate how this system hounds you to review stuff with minimum content so they are getting my opinion. The tour guide is great, went above and beyond in a rainstorm to keep me entertained. But this app, viator sucks. It just relentlessly messages you to review when they already have tons of reviews. They say it will only take a minute but they lie. They do not reward you for a task that inly benefits them. I’m sick of it and will think twice about using viator again. I hate being guilted into endless reviews.
Interesting history

4.00It was interesting! I think it’s more the history of St. Paul, but it was nice having a tour guide.
We needed to cancel due...

Not worth your time

2.00I’m a veteran of ghost tours and this one was not good at all. Many of the stories had nothing to do with the buildings or even Minnesota. Instead I heard about the Salem witch trials. The guide was nice but not a very good storyteller. Overall , I would not recommend this
Great Tour!

5.00Really enjoyed the walk and talk! Very informative and such beautiful, haunting structures. A perfect summer thing to do. A bit of a "chill" on many levels at this time of year and walking it in the dark. But a great time, none the less. I would love to go inside one of those places, too! Thank you!
Had so much fun!

5.00I thought the walking tour was super fun and definitely spiked my interest in the supernatural. I will definitely book another tour for Minneapolis.
Huh? What did she say?

3.00There were over 40 others on this sidewalk tour with us. We spent 30 minutes jostling for position near the guide so we could hear. The tour guide never introduced herself and did not provide direction for the crowd to position themselves so that all could see and hear. Frustrated, we left halfway through the event and were terribly disappointed.
