| I am from Charleston and had good friends with their children visiting from Kansas City, Missouri. We all found our tour guide to be entertaining, pleasant, and informative. It was a great walk through some areas I had not been through myself.
The children in particular enjoyed the dungeon part of the tour.
I would use this tour group again to entertain out of town guests. |

Not bad-not great either

| The tour guide was informative and did a nice job presenting the stories associated with each stop. The tour itself involved only four stops accompanied by a brief story and some history.
One reason I chose this package was the highly touted special access to the dungeon. Thinking this was some sort of special privilege associated with this tour, I was disappointed to find that the dungeon is open to the public and available for touring throughout the day as part of other tours.
Considering that the entire tour consists of locations that you can walk to and explore on your own without paying for a guide, you may be better served purchasing a book about Charleston ghosts and seeking out the locations on your own. |

| The description states a tour of graveyards yet we were only bystanders looking in through the gates..... Our tour guide did a good job but sounded as if he were reading a speech for most of the tour. You could tell it was memorized. I'm sure it's hard not to sound that way after doing it 3000+ times, but it kind of took the anticipation out of it!
They should space out all their tours more so they aren't overlapping so much. We were having to wait for a previous tour to finish so we could move on. It caused distraction.
Keep in mind that there are a million distractions going on around that are not controllable so it kind of ruins the "mood".
Not scary at all. We were not impressed. We paid $68 for 4 people and it was NOT worth it. Not even worth half the price. |

| The guide offered good historical information but of the 3 or 4 stories, I would only consider 1 of them a "ghost" story. I would have enjoyed it more had we been shown landmarks, then told about accounts that others have given in relation to ghost/"spirit "sightings. |

Very informitive and entertaining.

| We had a very good time on this tour. The tour guide was well informed and presented the tour in a very entertaining way. Next time we're in Charleston SC we will try other tours that Bulldog has. |

Hope you are in a hurry!

| we were rushed along only to wait on other groups then rushed out for other groups i felt like they were just trying to meet a quota. the guides are ok they tell some unbelieveable personal stories that has happened to them everywhere they have been. i enjoyed seeing the old dungeon and the history of it but i would prefer a smaller group and not have to be on a tight schedule. |

Tour was historically interesting

| 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. |

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. |
