We had a good ghost tour for a nice evening in downtown Gatlinburg, TN. Plus 3 black bear sightings. Would recommend if you are looking for something different or have done it all.

It was ok but loud all around us throughout which made it difficult to hear at times. Also it was advertised as visiting a cemetery and was told during the trip that since our group was too large we would not be going to a cemetery... Then either don't advertise this or cap it at a smaller number in order to do what was advertised.

Isis did a great job entertaining us with stories of spooky Gatlinburg. She spoke loud and clear, was funny and polite. The walking wasn’t too much.

My wife and I did the tour on Wednesday in late July. Patrick was our tour guide. While Patrick stayed on script for the most part and was entertaining, you could tell Patrick had better days. He appeared unwashed and hung over in his tank top and urban camouflage pants, not impressed. Aside from the company logo lantern, you would have never known who he was. We paid extra for the thirty minute 4 stop tour as advertised and got two stops after a long walk. Probably will never do it again and turned us off from other city tours.

was expecting a little more, location to meet for tour needed to have sign indication the spot and more seating. Our tour guide was very friendly, I paid for extra stops but didn't receive the total that was purchased. Overall I might do it again.
