| Tour time was spent mostly standing and listening to tour guide tell stories. Very little visual stimeulation. One stop at dungeon was the only highlight. The remainder of the time (80%) was spent standing on sidewalks. The tourguide belabored her stories to the point they were boring. |

| My wife and I took the walking ghost tour and was very disappointed. The tour consisted of spending time in an old dungeon with waxed figures nad being told to watch for the ropes to move. We then walked around for 30 minutes with two additional stops. It was not a ver interesting tour. |

A wonderful tour!

| I enjoyed the tour very much. I like learning about history, so the stories that the guide shared with us were very interesting. We had an excellent tour guide, who made the stories come alive. I have been on the tour twice, and hopefully will be able to do it again in the future. |

| David our guide was totally awesome, he really got into his story telling, the kids were memorized by his stories. The kids are 8 and 15. The dungeon was awesome, my 15 year old got some awesome pictures, as did we all, lots of orbs. The story of the house and the mahogany desk and the mother up stairs and and the solider coming to see the sister after he died was cool. The dual in the alley where they fought over the women and then both men died was great. We will be back next spring for one of your other tours. Thanks for a wonderful time. We also went thru Fort Moultrie and got some great pictures there with orbs. Thanks again, the Head family |

| Was very dissappointed with our tour guide. When he wasn't telling the "stories" at the sights he was busy talking to other members of the tour about unrelated things. In addition, they need to carry some kind of system so those of us who are farther behind can hear what is being said. With the cars going by, it was difficult at times and we were young. Price was okay but I am unsure of why we have to pay a service charge when it helps them out in the long run to know how many tickets are sold ahead of time. I was told by my friends that the tours are better in Savannah. |

Lots of fun for Halloween!

| My friend and I were both immensely entertained, as well as getting educated about some of the more interesting and dark secrets of Charleston's past. Our guide was interesting, knowledgeable, and handled the difficulties of Halloween overbooking at the Dungeon tour site with a professional grace and finesse that impressed me greatly. I don't know if the swinging chain in the Dungeon was rigged or not, but it certainly spooked us! |

| My Fiance and I went on Halloween night. First of all I could tell they didn't do anything special in the tours Halloween night versus another night which was a let down. It was definitely more of a history lesson than a ghost tour. If it had more stories of actual "ghosts" and how they died, it might be more interesting and spooky. Then maybe even ways to scare the patrons while in the Dungeon? |
