The story and the history

My husband and I took the Ghost and Graveyard tour in Charleston and enjoyed the night walk hearing stories and histories of people that lived in the city centuries ago. The tour was supposed to be exclusive access to a very historical graveyard, but several tours came in while we were there. Our guide was pleasant, but inexperienced in story-telling and needs to learn how to be more concise to keep the interest of the group going. We have been on ghost walks in other cities- Savannah, GA and St. Augustine, FL- and think they are a fun way to get to know the history of a place!

My friends and I greatly enjoyed our Ghost Tour. Our guide was personable and relayed tales with interesting anecdotes. Loved the cemetery. We returned the enxt day to photograph some of the interesting tombstones. Did not have the nerve to return at night by ourselves though. Would highly recommend Bulldog Tours! Thanks for a fun filled adventure in the cemetery.

Not what I expected

Tour guide was not only new but sick. She had a nagging cough and frequently stopped for water while giving information. She frequently forgot dates stating dates were not important to her. I felt a more seasoned tour guide would have made the tour more interesting.

Our tour guide Braxton was the best! He had a lot of great stories and anecdotes that made the tour. I wish we could have gone into more than one graveyard but other than that it was well worth it!

Lots of fun

We were in Charleston just for the day and wanted a fun tour. The guide was very good and very informative with stories that got longer and more detailed as we walked. He even had pictures with ghost images too! It was a great way to spend time in such a lovely and historic city. I especially liked how he even had his own ghost story! There were families along and it was not at all too scary, just fun!

Fun night walk

Fun and informative walk through Charleston. Appeals to all ages. My teenagers who did not want to go each ended up enjoying and saying we should do the tour again.

Very much enjoyed this tour. The walk through the grave yard was excellent as we're the photos of the spirits. My kids really enjoyed it and it wasn't over the top spooky for them. No nightmares after the tour!

Interesting locations, canned script
Fri, Mar 22  5:00 PM drtory Unspecified 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I loved walking around the town and visiting the sights. The ghost stories were interesting, but our tour guide was not able to be spontaneous, and any question or interuption from my children resulted in a long pause in the narration, and then the story was just picked up where it was left off, many times without answering the question asked. Also, when walking from one location to the next, there was no narration at all, just silence for minutes on end. It was just myself and my children on the tour, so I thought we'd get some individually tailored information, but that was not the case.
