Dissappointing

The tour groups are much much too large for any sense of "spookiness." There were nearly twenty people in our group, and I don't think there should have been more than four or five. Most of the time we were simply walking around downtown in a herd, with very little time for actual storytelling or exploring. If the group were smaller, we would be able to chat with our tour guide in between stops, but instead it was just follow the leader. Our tour leader spoke as if she was reading a script with very little personality, and only a few bad jokes that sounded as if she'd told them a hundred times before. We did hear some interesting stories we hadn't heard before, but I definitely didn't get a single chill up my spine.

The guide was wonderful... full of wonderful stories and excellent descriptions of everything we went to see. Pace was comfortable, as well. We didn't feel rushed nor did we feel like it moved too slowly.

Informative

Our guide provided a lot of historical information on the sites visited which I really enjoyed. She gave us overview of what the tour would entail before it started, and also shared pictures from other customers that experienced sightings. I would be interested in participating in other tours offered if I return to the area.

Interesting Tour, Captured a Picture of a Ghost

Very Interesting, typical ghost walk tour, it was great going inside the dungeon and not just walking past it listening to a story. The disappointment was that there is several places such as the jail that they don't take you to because it is a separate tour. But other than that, it was informative and I believe I did capture a picture of a pirate ghost.

This was not the best or the worst ghost tour we've done. Guide was not near as enthusiastic as others, but the dungeons were neat.

Somewhat Disappointed

This was the first time that I have been on a tour so I really did not know what to expect. That being said ... the experience was alittle boring. It was interesting visiting the Dungeon but didn't think the rest of the tour was.

Very interesting and entertaining.

Lot's of local history. Very interesting. I took a picture inside the dungeon that shows what appears to be a young woman in period clothing. She seems to be coming through a door and leaning slightly to her left. Would you be interested in seeing this picture and helping me identify what or who this person might be? I don't think it is a reflection since there is no glass that I can remember being in this area.

With the dark history of Charleston, there wasn't any information to support that here. I had a better time on the Gullah tour of Charleston in reference to dark history, black magic, folk lore, and actual depiction of reality. Interestingly enough for a city to have imported 45% of slaves into America. This tour didn't offer any information about them and their brutal treatment. Though it offered a story about the upper class whites, a mother that lost a child in birth, something very common in those days. I would not recommend it to anyone. My son was very disappointed as well.
