What To Expect
This building was originally built in 1814 and has changed hands more times than a sailors eaten a bowl of clam chowder. And that’s most likely due to the ghosts that haunt the joint.
This old building dates back to 1815 and in its heyday it once housed one of most popular brothels in the city.

Good tour but frustrating process

3.00Paying for the walking tour was easy but getting access to the tour was very frustrating and cumbersome. It wasn't very clear that you needed to download a second app to access the tour.
Self Guided- unique and customized

5.00This was a different spin on a tour throughout the city because it was self guided. We were able to skip around and even stop for browsing in stores and eating, then resuming the tour. The bits about each location was interesting.
Enjoyed Portsmouth, Nh

5.00I enjoyed the self guided tour through Portsmouth, NH. I did find it a little bit confusing with the directions at times.

5.00This was a fun way to explore the city and to learn a lot about the history of Portsmouth. We learned so much and the the ghost story is, we just added fun! It’s a great way to walk around and learn the history and stop and pause to go in anywhere you want along the way. Just a heads up the bar at the end is permanently closed. Apparently they experience some bad flooding and just couldn’t keep up to code with the bills. Sad. It looked like it would’ve been a fun way to end the tour. I feel for the owners.
Great way to learn about a beautiful historic city

5.00For the price this is a great value. Portsmouth has a charming extensive history. This tour provides a guided walking tour of some notable historic buildings that I have certainly missed on previous visits. The haunted aspects provide an effective way to learn local lore, historical importance and focus. Who knew that Portsmouth was integral in the Underground Railroad. The tour is about an hour and an exceptional value. I’ll look forward to more self guided walkntours while I visit other cities!!
Spooky and historical

5.00Make certain your phone is charged. The tour was on my phone. My husband could hear the audio also. One tour can be shared. The reader's voice was very clear as we're tge walking directions.

5.00Awesome ! We really enjoyed the tour, it was great. It was a super easy process. We loved walking the tour by ourselves, and choosing when we wanted to go. A huge advantage of these tours is that you go when you want, not waiting for strangers to join the group. Will definitely book another tour !
Awesome!!
