1.00I was not satisfied with this tour or the tour guide. She seemed very fake and sounded more like she was writing a romance novel rather than telling us about colonial Williamsburg. The amount of emails and text messages I have received is absurd, and I will not book with this company again.
Great cold ghost walk.

5.00Nice walk through the colonial neibirhood of Williamsburg on a pre-Thanksgiving evening. Our guide Austin was great with his spooky yet humorous stories during the Whispers hour-long ghost tour. Booking through viator was hassle free and the agent was responsive with directions. Only comment would be the meeting place at start should be included properly in the booking reservation confirmation.
Excellent experience.
