Due to city restrictions, we were not allowed near certain locations on our tour - which makes it hard to get into a story when you can't even see the location the guide is telling about. Also, we were only allowed access into one graveyard. I would suggest the Ghost & Dungeon tour instead, because you get access to a graveyard AND the dungeon. |

Our family throughly enjoyed the easy walk through the alleyways and graveyards in the historic Charleston District. The stories and information were presented with enthusism by our guide Susan and we learned a great deal of the burial habits and challenges associated with tending to the dead hundreds of years ago. |

We recently took the Ghosts and Graveyard Tour, and enjoyed it a great deal. It was also my first trip to Charleston, so the history provided during the tour was a nice addition to being spooked a little. Our guide was very knowledgeable and seemed to really enjoy sharing the information with us. I highly recommend this tour for others and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did ! Ask for Rebel to be your guide !!! |

My wife and I have been on several graveyard walks in historic southern cities and this one compared favorably all the way around. We were informed, entertained and given the inside scoop. Our guide was Tag and although he gave us a good workout walking from place to place, he entertained with the stories of Charleston's notorious deaths in a convincing way. He intertwined history and fables and included some of the lesser known but important elements of Charleston's past. I think others with us on the tour were having a good time too. Our tour took us inside the locked graveyards and down to the waterfront with informative stops in between. Thanks for a great evening! |

We really enjoyed the tour. The guide was great. Not only was she very informative and knowledgable, but she kept control of the group. I highly reccomend this tour. |

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! |

Our guide was very enthusiastic, and dramatic, However, we spent a lot of time standing around in parking lots listening to him talk at length.
He told an interesting story about a young woman, Annabelle Lee. Her suitor - spurned by her father - turned out to be Edgar Allen Poe. An interesting aside could have been added - how Poe's grave has been visited each night on his birthday with roses and brandy being left. No one knows who does it. |

This attraction was very informational. Not very spooky though. The best i found was on my camera with a couple of pictures of the old powder mill. I caught the shades open in 2 pictures then closed in the next, all taken within about 1 minute of each other. |

My 6 yr old son and I went on the Ghost Tour. It was fine for him, nothing too scary, but we were told just a few, very detailed, flowery stories. I would of liked to hear more, shorter stories and I know Charleston has them! Oh, and don't forget the bugspray! |

Had a great time on the tour. Love how it was not just ghost stores, but local history along with the stories. I have already told people they have to take this tour. |
