Disappointing Experience

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.
