| Last year, my family and I, (2 adults and 2 older teens) had taken a previous tour with this company and had thoroughly enjoyed that event. (The Haunted Jail tour) So we took a vote and I lost - we went on this tour instead of the cemetery tour. All I can say is that we were all less than enthused. The dungeon wasn't creepy and the stories were a bit lame. The sites chosen for this tour were all fairly well lit areas and the one "ghostly" phenomenon of digital cameras recording a blue line on their screen, while in an alleyway wasn't really ghostly at all. Just some fluke with the light waves, filters, the digital refreshing, etc. (I have a family of electrical engineers they can explain it!) Turns out if you point your camera at any streetlamp in the city, they all do it. If you want a tour from this company, I CAN recommend the Jail tour. The building alone is creepy! |

A fun time in Charleston...

| I thought the tour was a very good tour and compliments to the staff for excellent tour. I do have one minor thing to bring to your attention. It did seem like the guide walked a little fast for the group. I am a fast walker but my wife has a disability which keeps her from walking very fast. Other than that it was very informative, the guide was quite articulate and well versed in his speech. Thank you bulldog tours |

| Eli was our guide and a very good story teller. I had my 10 year-old son with me, so this was a great tour for us. I have been on the Haunted Jail tour which I consider better, but not for my 10-yr-old which is why I chose this tour. So I guess it depends on who is doing the tour. Either way, Bulldog Tours is the way to go! |

Lots of walking with only a few stops

| The tour guide was excellent, and an excellent story teller. However, we really just walked a lot and visited only a few sites. The stories were very interesting and well told, but we would have enjoyed more stops with shorter stories. |

We did not make the tour

| Parking was available at an extra charge. We left in plenty of time to have 30 minutes before the tour started. After calling the tour office we were told to find a place to park on Market St. That was impossible. We finally found a place on Church St which was about 1/2 mile away. We called the tour office and they directed us to them on foot. The tour had already left and my wife was on crutches but fairly mobile. After the 1/2 mile fast paced walk she was in no shape to "run" to catch the tour. We opted to just head on home and lose the tour fee. There was a total of 3 of us that didn't make the tour and 2 that did. The 2 that did said it was more of a history tour than a Ghost tour. We will not be rescheduling.
Thank you

| Our tour guide, 'Hoon, was rude at first rushing us through town without explanation, rude to teens on tour (not in our group), very flat presentation, off topic and not very entertaining. What could have been spooky and fun in the dungeon was more like a museum tour. Not recommended. |

Great atmosphere, stories, and history!

| We very much enjoyed the ghost and dungeon tour. The guide did a great job telling stories and explaining the history of Charleston. My husband and I learned a lot and really had a great time. It was very interesting to see the actual dungeon -- we will never forget it! We definitely recommend this tour to others who would like to have a fun and educational night on the town in Charleston. |

| the tour was nice, our guide was knowledgable. We had been on a bull dog tour earlier in the year and had loved it, so we wanted to go on an other. Our tour guide was nice but didnt layout all of the facts. i did have to ask questions to try and get the whole story but you should enjoy this tour...if not you'll have taken some tiime off the night and walked your diner off... |
