| I purchased my tickets for the wrong date, but the staff was very willing to help me switch tickets or refund them if I wanted. I didn't go on the dungeon tour, but my tour was awesome. The guide was an excellent storyteller. |

| Hearing about the history of Blackbeard and Bonnett was interesting, but did not do much to enhance the atmosphere of a "ghost" tour. We felt the storytelling was a bit uneven, and inconsistent. We ducked out of the tour early rather than endure another pause and another story. |

Bulldog Ghost and Dungeon Tour was great!

| We are a bit skeptical when it comes to ghost stories, but it was still a lot of fun to hear about them. We weren't scared at all, but there are plenty of creepy moments. The security that lets you into the Provost Dungeon is a good resource too. Be sure to go see it in the daytime! The city is beautiful at night and we were very comfortable walking by the graveyards with our large group. They even pass around some pictures to enhance their stories! I loved that they told you about all the haunts in the local hotels. They told us that really scary things can and do happen on the tours, but we had a very calm evening. The guides are very experienced and professional. Don't forget your camera because you can take all the pictures you want! |

Not worth the time or money...

| We were concerned that our 7 and 10 year old girls would get scared... not even close. There was not one story that I can recall or would repeat.
At the last stop of the tour the guide says "that's all folks" and points you towards Market Street. They do not take you back to the starting point. My feeling is that they are concerned that the next set of customers will see the disappointment on your face.
Maybe I was expecting too much, but I would chose other ways to spend my time and money in the future. |

| This was a very interesting tour with several very good stories. The trip to the dungeon was an unusual experience and very worthwhile. There was quite a bit of walking which seemed to cut down on the time for the stories. |

| We thought there would be more substance to the Ghost and Dungeon tour. The guide was good for what he had to work with, but there wasn't much to it. They stand you outside a graveyard for way too long making way too big a deal about a "real" photo of a ghost and then bring you to a dungeon and then bring you to the waterfront and tell way too long of a story. There wasn't much of anything about the city as we were walking. Just 3 stops with long, kinda boring stories. More of a standing around tour than a walking tour.
I've done a similiar type walking tour in Savannah and it was so much more interesting.

| The Charleston Ghost and Dungeon Tour provided exactly what we were looking for. Nicely complete 90 minute tour. Held the interest of our college sophmore and our 7th grader. |

| This was a fun tour full of wonderful information about old Chaleston,Our guide was very well versed, told a spell-binding story, ad was able to scare the bee-gee-bees out of most of us.I had my seven year old grand-daughter with us and she had some great entries in her journal for that evening. I will be moving to the area very soon and will go on this tour again.Lots of fun and again, very worthwhile |
