| It was our 5th time- and as good as ever. Every year the guides tell some of the same stories and some new ones- but even the same ones have a different twist.
It is a "must" while in Charleston. |

| I was slightly skeptic about the entertainment value of this tour after reading some reviews, but my family and I had a really good time!!! The tour guide was slightly quiet and although she started off saying that she's the type of guide that tells her stories with humor, she was simply informational...not much humor involved. But this wasn't disappointing; the stories were interesting to hear and although they were not scary while we were on the tour - My 21 year old daughter, 17 year old son, and I freaked out after getting back to the hotel. Talking about all the ghost stories got us scared enough to have to sleep with the lights on!!! Overall, a very fun activity that you definfitly have to try when in Charleston! |

| The Ghost and Graveyard tour was fun, but there were 5 groups of 20 each on our night, so it was extermely crowded out there. Our guide was not particulary enthusiastic, but it was fun nonetheless.
I would recommend this tour when there are not so many people in town. |

Great tour of the City; highly recommend it.

| What I thought was going to be a tour of a graveyard turned out to be much more, as we walked throughout the City. Tad, our host, was very interesting and informative and we enjoyed his ghost stories. The only drawback was the weather - it was very hot that evening. |

| The stories told by the guides were very interesting mixing history and local folk lore. The tales of greed, love and daily life transport you back in time. |

Recommend highly!

| We scheduled our tour for 9:30 p.m., thinking it would be scarier at night. Although there were no ghost sightings I think it did add to the fear factor of the tour walking around the graveyard so late at night. Our tour guide was Micheal (I think - look for the tall guy with the skull walking stick). He was wonderful and had a great sense of humor, and was very knowledgeable about the history of Charleston. If you think you'll see ghosts you probably won't, but you will learn about some of the oldest and most interesting sites/people in Charleston's history. |

| Great tour, lots of historical facts and some good ghost stories. We loved the tour, but were disappointed when our tour guide, Brooke, left us in the middle of Charleston, unsure on how to find our way back to Market Street and our car. |
