5.00I sent my clients on this tour, and here's what they had to say: Our ghosts tour was cool. It was all outdoors and two hours long. I couldn’t believe all the information our tour guide had to spew out in that short amount of time! He told us so many things about famous haunted buildings and parks and historical figures who people have sworn they’ve seen up and down the streets. It was really really interesting and we loved it!

4.00We had a small group, so that was nice. Our guide knew a lot about what we were seeing. But we spent too long in front of each location. He had many stories to tell, perhaps a little too drawn out. It would have been nice to visit more locations as there are plenty.
Amazing history and lots of fun

She not only provided all of the history for each location but she made it fun as well. The provided earbuds and receiver made hearing her so much better than had we not had them. We highly recommend this tour.
