Venture inside the gates of Charleston’s oldest graveyard after dark to hear tales of ghosts, voodoo and Lowcountry superstitions.

I liked the ghost tour very much. Our guide was nice and he tried to tell us a lot of stories. We learned alot about the history of Charleston which helped us enjoy the rest of our visit. Going into the cemetary at night was fun. It wasn't scary but it creates a mood and makes the tour more fun. Now that we're home we often talk about the tour when we think back about our trip. Next time we go we plan on taking another tour. |

Great fun and lots of creepy moments! Hoped to see a ghost but oh well, maybe someday. Our guide Steven had a cool skull-head walking stick, was personality-plus, and, boy, could he tell a story! We were standing in that graveyard drenched in sweat, but we still got cold chills! Not a hard walk at all, with lots of stops for story-telling. We would recommend this for everyone! (P.S. Watch out for Zoe!) |

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our evening tour of Charleston Ghost and Graveyards with our tour guide, Elli. He was a wonderful story teller which made the tour that much better. Not only were the facts rich with information for us but it was riveting his ability to intertwine the stories with his group. We will be returning in October with some friends and are looking forward to another tour with your company and Elli if possible.
Sincerely,

I was very excited about this tour, and I certainly wasn't disappointed. Our tour guide was interesting and thorough with the stories. Though I wish we could have heard a couple more, I'm glad we got a few in detail rather than many vague stories. The stories weren't exactly scary, but that wasn't really what we were looking for, although I did get chills more than once. The next time we visit Charleston, we'll definitely take another tour with this company. |

I've been on several other ghost tours and although they haven't been able to take you inside the graveyards, they told a lot more stories and took you to more locations around town. This tour was 90mins and we heard exactly three stories. We were all disappointed. Plus, one of the stories was a story we'd heard on another tour. It was nice to be out and about in Charleston during the evening....but that's about all I can say on a postive note about this tour.
I did go with Bulldog tours to the old City Jail and that was a good tour. I'd recommend that tour before the ghost walk. |

THE TOUR GUIDE WAS INFORMATIVE AND VERY ANIMATED. THE TOUR WAS AWESOME AND IT WAS SO REAL THAT MY 8 YEAR OLD SON WAS CRYING BY THE END OF THE TOUR. ABSOLUTELY WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TOUR AS WELL AS THE JAIL HOUSE TOUR, MUCH BETTER THAN THE GRAVEYARD TOUR-- WHICH WAS AWESOME IN IT SELF. WILL BE BACK SOON!!!

Okay....yes....I know the guides are supposed to know their "stuff" BUT my mind was blown away by all the facts and stories our guide shared with us! ...even the "tongue in cheek" info was done with a sparkle in his eye and a smile on his face which made it digestable! :o) I'm not exagerating either when I say great way to spend an evening - it's just long enough, good mixture of fun facts with actual stories - the actual stories really make you think as you're standing in a graveyard! Which brings me to my close...do YOU know the difference between a graveyard and a cemetary??? ....I do 'cause I took the tour!! Thanks for the memory added to my Charleston trip! |

The ghost tour was fun, but not too incredibly creepy. We went on the Graveyard Tour but I just wanted to get scared a bit more! A great lesson in Charleston History and some good stories to bring home! Our tour guide was awesome! |

My husband and I were visiting for our anniversary. It was our first night in town and because of that, we enjoyed spending our first night walking the city. Our tour guide was extremely nice yet she was very soft spoken and her stories were more history than scary. We were very dissappointed with that. We were expecting a loud boisterous tour guide to give it the effect one would expect from a ghost tour. We have taken similar tours in other cities and I must say, presentation is everything. |
