Try a different tour, or at least avoid David

| This tour didn't have that many stops, and the stories that went along with them were not particularly interesting, and definitely not well told by the tour guide, David. I gathered from things he said that he is a retired teacher just trying to make ends meet, and he may even be aware that he's a lousy tour guide, because at the end when he offered us the comment cards, he asked that we "be nice" because that's how he makes a living. What does that have to do with anything? I think he ultimately killed the tour. It may have been better with a different guide, but I'm not so sure. David was a nice guy, but he was repetitive, and he came across really phony in his attempts to generate intrigue. I found my mind wandering, and even got to the point that I just thought: "are we done yet? Just give it up, fella." I believe in ghosts, and I walked away feeling like I'd just wasted my time walking around in the fog and drizzling rain to get handed a load of B.S. Whatever truth there may have been to those stories, he failed to convey it in a way that was worth $18. I bet he bored his students to tears, too. |

| The tour guide did a great job. She new all the details, was a good story teller, and spoke loud enough for everyone to hear her. She also did a great job dealing with some really annoying children on the tour. I would recommend this to most everyone. |

| This was a great tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and a good storyteller. The focus was on history as much as ghosts, so we all learned something. I went on the tour with my 18-year-old daughter and her boyfriend. We all enjoyed it, and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in history with a macabre twist. |

| Neal was a superb guide. Despite the frigid weather, he gave a complete tour and was just delightful. We were his only customers and my husband and adult son were so inspired with his stories that they returned on Friday and retraced our tracks in the daylight, taking pictures. Sorry, Neal but I hit King Street for shopping. Thanks again for a great experience. Karen Dill |

| The guide was very knowledgable about the history of charleston, but never got into character for a ghost walk. I was hopeing for a lot more. |

Great fun learning about the ghosts of Charleston
