Super fun and interesting

I love history, and especially spooky history! So this experience was so fun and interesting to me. Our tour guide had a great personality, and really brought the ghost stories to life with her elaborate story telling. We walked to places in the city that we probably would not have walked hadn’t it been for this experience, and I’m so glad we were able to see those areas in a safe and fun atmosphere. And the two for one hurricanes, let me tell you they will truly get you in the spirit :D

Probably the most mediocre ghost tour we have been on. I think we only hit 4 spots. We walked right by a lot of other tours that we stopped. Mostly we just walked a lot.

Early departure chaos
Steph_S
, May 2022
The tour guide was great and so informative. We were there early to check in, 20 minutes early. We went to the bar that offered drink specials for tour participants. At 750 one of our party came in and said the tour had just left, getting started early. I’m not sure why that was necessary to do, we had to sprint to the first stop despite us arriving on time and early, as suggested. If we had been keeping the group or late, I understand the tour leaving, but to arbitrarily leave before the publicized tour time was a downer. would book with another agency.

Thank you for your review. Please allow me to clear up a misconception here. Haunted History Tours is a very very popular tour company. We attract many people to our tours. We also have several tour guides. When the groups get large and the sidewalks become crowded, we simply give people the option to leave early if they are ready. We do not just simply send a tour out before it’s publicized time. We send several groups out so that everyone can hear and appreciate the experience. Your group did not have to leave 10 minutes prior to our publicized departure time. If people are not ready to leave early then they have the option to stay until we send our last group out at the publicized departure time.

Aria was the best guide through the quarter. Shes one of the best storytellers we have heard, and she makes sure to give as much history as she does ghost stories. I cannot recommend this tour or this guide enough.

Excellent narration by Toast, who brought the stories to life with some drama and some humor. Go for the history, and don't expect a ghost hunting tour and you'll be fine.

The tour was absolutely amazing! My husband and myself really enjoyed hearing all of the stories! That was until the tour stopped in front of the hotel we were staying at… we had no clue that we were actually staying in a haunted hotel… And yes, we experienced the hauntings first hand.
