This tour is chock full of fascinating stories and visits multiple locations, from creepy old buildings to very nice boutique hotels. It seemed our wonderful tour guide, Ashlyn, was never short on tales of hauntings and the general fascinating history of the area. In fact, if history is one of your interests (as it is with me) all of the stories come with a great history background to them—the pirates, the notorious Fort Christian, tales of black magic, etc. If there’s anyone in your group that doesn’t believe in the paranormal, bring them along anyway because they’ll get some great history lessons. There was even a little break for cocktails (or a “mocktail” in my case). Highly recommended!

This was the highlight of our trip! Ruvinia was amazing. We booked during slow season here in STT so it ended up just being us which was totally fine. We learned a lot of amazing history. We did also go on a Monday so hotel 1829 was closed and they had a private party when we tried to go back later so we missed out on that but that’s okay. Every other stop was still worth the adventure.

We visited St. Thomas during the off-season, so it ended up being just myself, my husband, and our two friends on the tour—which made it feel even more special. Our guide, Ruvinia, was absolutely amazing. She captivated us with her retellings of local folklore, sharing stories about jumbies, a wayward voodoo priestess, and even personal experiences involving her grandmother. One of my favorite parts was when she gave us frequency detectors to gauge the jumbies in the area—it was so cool to see how they reacted to her stories! Her sweet and bubbly personality drew us in right away, and she kept us fully engaged the entire evening. We laughed, we listened intently, and we walked away with a deeper appreciation for the island’s history and culture. Thank you, Ruvinia, for such a memorable experience! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting St. Thomas.

I had such a great time on The Haunt: Historic Ghost Tour in St. Thomas! Walking through town and hearing the spooky (and fascinating) history was such a unique experience. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but hilarious, which made the tour even more fun. I definitely got goosebumps hearing some of the stories so eerie and so good! I’d absolutely do it again and recommend it to anyone looking for something different to do on the island.

Ruvinia was an absolutely incredible guide on our journey into the paranormal legends and lore of Charlotte Amelie. We also learned quite a bit about the history of various landmarks throughout the city making this a fantastic educational experience as well. She is very knowledgeable and her passion to keep the legends of St. Thomas alive for generations shined through. For those of age, stops for some delicious “spirits” in some of the oldest bars in the city (also haunted) for tastings was also a pleasant surprise. Overall an exceptional ghost tour with some truly spine tingling stories. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a creepy activity while on St. Thomas.
