If for some reason it looks like the tour will not go (this is rare but does occasionally happen), we will personally call you with a tour update 2-3 hours before your tour is set to go. If your tour does not go, again very rare, we will refund you or move you to another date. Feel free to call or email us with any questions or if you just want an update on how many have signed up so far. If we don't pick up immediately we will get back to you shortly.

If you are driving, please show up early to get parking.
Service animals are allowed provided they are small, can be carried in their crate and do not disturb the other attendees. If you have a larger animal like a German Sheppard you would need to purchase an additional seat,potentially crate the animal and will not be able to enter some of the locations as there are antique and very valuable, fragile historic artifacts in them.

5.00This was the third ghost tour we've taken in San Diego, all with different companies. The tours are a fun and informative, on every tour we have learned a little more about San Diego's past. This recent tour, we took with friends who have lived in San Diego for more than thirty years and even they learned new things about their city.
Great tour with CP

4.00Overall our experience was good. Cowboy Pete did an excellent job of narrating each location and given specifics that really enlighten the tour. He also did a great job on giving us direction on where and what we could do or use at locations. And was very observant of where all the members of the party was, and making sure everybody knew of any obstacles that were coming up or needed to be addressed. We will definitely recommend the tour to family and friends!!
Don’t miss cowboy Pete !!!!!

5.00Amazing tour and well worth the trip. They work with locals in San Diego and you're able to go inside to some of the museums/homes/hotels. I really liked Dante's story telling and the way he captured the hauntings of the places we visited. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who dares to adventure in the haunted parts of San Diego.
Highly recommended

4.00This was a fun tour with beautiful homes and places to visit. As far as accessibility, there is very little walking but a lot of standing, which is really hard for me. I think if I'd had a rollator it would have been much easier for me. But I did out and Josephine was great, with jokes so bad they were good and Mike, our driver, was so kind and great. Quiet but ready to assist in any way he could and dropping a good line a few times. I highly recommend this but be ready to stand.
Great time!

4.00It started badly - being given an address that did not exist! But an excellent guide (complete with Indiana Jones style hat!) made up for it with is stories and humorous quips!
So Worth It! Book Now!

5.00Truly a one-of-a-kind experience! I’ve done a few ghost tours around Old Town before, but this one stood out—it felt much more personal and authentic. Our guide, Archie, made it clear that this wasn’t about cheap scares or theatrics, but about the real, historically accurate side of Haunted San Diego. We even got a private mini tour of the stunning Villa Montezuma led by its keeper, Louise—such a beautiful home with an incredible history. Later, we explored another haunted house exclusively with EMF readers, which made the experience even more immersive. My friends and I had an amazing time, and I’d 100% book another tour in the future!
Very informative and got...
