Not the best

I wouldn't recommend this tour. Having taken a number of ghost tours in different cities around the globe this one ranks towards the bottom. The guide was entertaining but appeared to be in a hurry to get somewhere after work. I couldn't recount any real details of the ghost stories he told us. It was more along the lines of "Here's a theater. A girl died here after being struck in the street. Let's move along..." Hate to be negative, but either find some more interesting ghosts, add details to the haunts, or cancel this tour altogether.

did not expect an episode of 'ghost hunters', but thought we would do more than stand outside of buildings and tell stories.

Very enjoyable tour. Guide was very informative. She was able to explain the tour very well, and knew much about the history or Memphis.

Our tour guide was informative and very enjoyable. She was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Maybe, got a picture of an orb. Don't know. Memphis has a history of some ghost observations, but we didn't visit inside of any place described. Plus, since it was in the middle of summer, the tour occurred before nightfall which did not enhance the ambiance.

The stories were captivating, especially the ones involving a known individual - Orpheum and Gayoso apartment. I wish we were able to visit some of the haunted spaces. The ad stated we would join a guide with lantern to tour the area. Obviously, the lantern wasn't necessary, but a period costume would have been a nice touch, especially since the mid to late 1800s seemed to be the most active source of spirits. My granddaughter is still talking about the tour.

Nice to get some history of the area. Never knew the underground railroad was right under beale street. and where the interacial line was on Main street.

Did not meet our expectations, not worth the cost.

We went a group of friends, all of us with our spouses. We are all grad students in Memphis and thought this would be a fun activity on Halloween. We were disappointed that we did not go in any of the buildings except for one restaurant. We also thought the guide would be dressed up for Halloween and be a little scarier. He was funny, but there wasn't anything scary about the tour. It was fun to see the city, but definitely not worth the price

Ghost Stories always good for the Halloween season

This was a good tour. the Guide was energetic and knew a great deal about the history of the haunted locations. It would have been nice to have gone inside some of these locations but I understand that this is out of their control. I was suprised to find out that many of the businesses did not want to be asociated with a ghost tour or have any of their guests or customers have any knowledge that anything supernatural may occur to them.
