Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable. I was not quite as spooked as I would've liked to have been, but that could be because there was no eerie music playing in the background. However, my 9 year old son absolutely loved it and would definitely go again. |

We enjoyed our guide - David, I believe his name was - and tour at 9:30 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 31. We took the Ghosts & Graveyards tour. This was my second time on a Bulldog ghost tour and I liked this one better than the Dungeons tour. We also really liked that our guide was a Charleston native. We could tell that he enjoyed the history of the city and was involved in all the stories he told. My only complaint is that we wanted more! It would have been cool if we could have gone into more than one cemetery on the Graveyards tour. But overall, a well-recommended experience. |

I have lived in Charleston for over 30 years and learned some new history. Our guide was very articulate, good paced tour and just the right size. |

Enjoyed the tour. The tour guide "Hoon" was quite knowledgeable. The tour was a little slow in starting as "Hoon" went over the ground rules but he framed the ghost legacy of Charleston and the history of the region well and spun some good stories. |

What a fun thing to do in Charleston!! My husband and I went on the 9:30 Graveyard Tour and had a fabulous time! However, check the weather reports before you book your tour because the tour happens, rain or shine! If there's a chance for rain, bring rain gear and be prepared. Most of our tour was conducted in a monsoon and we were thoroughly soaked. Still had fun, though. Great way to see Charleston and hear interesting stories and history of the area. Be sure and request Houn (as in Calhoun) as your tour guide -- he was a great storyteller and answered lots of questions. |

Alot of talking. Our guide was enthusiastic however. You run into other tour groups at the same time, gets a bit crowded. OK, but mostly just him talking and looking at buildings and hearing ghost stories. The end is cool, actually get to enter one graveyard. |

ghost & graveyard tour review

We were a multi-generational group and all had a good time. Our guide, Grason, was an excellent story-teller. The only drawback was that his flashlight didn't work. He did his best to make up for it with the light from his cell-phone, but in the future, it might be better to provide lights or suggest that they are brought along. Red lights would provide illumination without brightness, and could even add to the creepy factor. Overall, we were glad to have a different activity to do all together, and it was worth it. |

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and found it most interesting. Was amazed at how much info we received in short amount of time. Hoon was our guide and he was great. His enthusiasm and love for his job is most enjoyable. Impressed by the training that your guides go through. Will definitely plan a longer visit to your beautiful city next time to follow up on some of the places we saw and heard about. |
