| The tour guide herself was quite knowledgable about the area and the history. She did a good job with the tour. The issue I had is that the one dungeon was really the only sight we got to see firsthand. I would recommend a different tour so that more areas could be seen. |

| We enjoyed the tour very much. I took my 12 year old daughter and niece, and my 7 year old son. Our tour guide, Cathy, was an excellent story teller and knew her information very well. We would have liked to hear more about the ghostly activities and what the spirits do to make their presence known. I thought it was a little heavy on the gore, but the kids seemed to like that part. We look forward to taking the other tours offered by Bulldog Tours. |

| The tour was boring and uneventful. The tour was advertised at rated R and it was more like G. Even young children would have been bored on the tour. My boyfriend and I started making up our own stories because the ones we were hearing weren't exciting enough. |

| Our guide was well informed and quite knowledgeable of the ghost stories of Charleston. Whether or not you believe in spirits, it's an entertaining way of exploring Charleston and discovering some of its history not likely found in a tour book. |

Fun but not what expected

| Eric our tour guide was interesting but not very engaging. You could tell he'd done the tour many times and he had his routine down pat. We did the tour for the kids (and there were a number of other kids there also) and they became bored quickly because Eric did the ghost stories as a 'museum' style tour guide would for adults and not for the younger set. The tour had only 4 stops, which was deeply disappointing, I would have thought that an old town like Charleston would have plenty of places to show off their ghost tales. The dungeon is a complete waste, it could be any underground place in town. Not to say that the tour was a complete letdown, it was fun to walk around town and see some of the old buildings. We knew we weren't on a historical tour but this tour could have been much better if some history was thrown in while we were walking to each stop and if the stories were geared toward the kids and letting them be more entertained. |

| We enjoyed our tour with our family. Our daughter thought it was fun walking through parts of the city. Our guide was amazingly knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I enjoyed the tour. The stories we heard were interesting. |

| We had an enthusiastic tour guide who knew the history and stories of the area quite well. He interacted with each group within the party, and allowed us to stop along the way for more details and stories. The access to the dungeon was what sold me on this tour. It's a really neat place, and the stories associated with it were interesting, even to this skeptic. I enjoyed the tour, and would recommend it to anyone. |

| If you like old ghost stories and hearing that there are several places that are haunted in Charleston then this is the tour for you. You don't get to go into any places and you have no proof it's really haunted. It was kind of a boring tour but if you like history then it would be the tour for you. |

| My husband and I decided to do a few tours before we left the area. This particular tour would have been better if we went later in the evening. It was still daylight when we went. Overall, it was an okay tour with some interesting tales but it's difficult to get spooked when it is still daylight outside. |

| We had a wonderful tour with Stephen. He had a vast knowledge of history and was an excellent story teller. We would definitely recommend the tour to others. |
