| I was expecting to hear some real history of Charleston...at least to set the stage given pirates and wars. The stories were kind of lame and did not reflect the true wealth of fun stuff out of Charleston's history. The 'best' story that was told was that of someone who died and was buried an hour away from town which didn't seem that relevant. A very nice night time walk though through Charleston with great potential but I think that the tour contents itself need to be improved. This could be a great tour with the right tour guide. Ours was less than exciting. |

| The guide told several stories as we walked but we were bored quickly. Not a do-over. |

| We were so incredibly dissapointed with our tour. The guide mumbled the entire tour, was asked to speak up so we could hear him and continued to mumble. It was a miserable 1 1/2 hrs. We even contemplated mid- tour leaving the group to try another. At the end, he left us in a parking lot and we weren't even sure the tour was ov er. It was an unfortunately bad experience. |

| Before I booked with Bulldog, I read some of the reviews and found a fair amount of negative ones, but I was optimistic and just chalked the negative ones up to people having too high expectations. Unfortunately, I can no longer say that that is the case. I had very low expectations, I just wanted a number of "ghost" stories relating to Charleston and maybe some local history thrown in. Even with these expectations, I was greatly disappointed. I think they told maybe three stories over the entire 90 minute tour and some of them had nothing to do with Charleston (e.g., they spent half an hour on a story that had to do with an entirely different city that happened to have a grave stone similar to one we were looking at in Charleston). Moreover, other stories were clearly just cobbled together from parts of well-known campfire ghost stories that are told around the world, yet the company pretended like they were unique to Charleston and happened there. Bottom line, I'm sure there are fun and entertaining tour companies in Charleston, but this is clearly not one of them. |

| We really enjoyed the tour of the Charleston Graveyards. The guide was very informative and knowledgeable of the history of Charleston and it's resident ghosts. The only problem we really incurred was we couldn't hear the tour guide very well. He had done the tour the night before in the rain and was losing his voice. The guide even had pictures to show us of the ghosts he was talking about. We really enjoyed doing the tour and plan to visit Charleston this fall and do another tour with this company. |

| We went on the ghost tour in Charleston not knowing what to expect. We were very pleasantly surprised but won't give away details. Highly recommend!

| The tour was informative as far as the history of Charleston. The guide seemed to know many interesting tidbits.
The walk was at a pretty comfortable pace and not too long in length. Although you couldn't really see much in the dark, some of the sites were interesting to see.
We didn't see any ghosts, but we really didn't expect to. We did this tour really just for the entertainment aspect of it. An avid ghost hunter would probably be disappointed.
The only thing we didn't like about the tour was that the guide ended up tour abruptly in the middle of Charleston - 3-1/2 blocks away from where we started. He basically said if we needed directions to get back where we started, to ask him. I thought this was a bit ridiculous considering it was 11pm!! |
