It was a fun tour full of history and facts. The tour guide was good. She knew her stuff. I would have to say that I was glad to have experienced it but once is enough. |

Very Interesting! |

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and kept everyone's attention very well. In the past I have been on many ghost tours in Charleston and this was by far the best one. He even stopped to tell stories and let everyone get in place before he started talking. He also paused for loud traffic or passersby, which with other tours never happened. Other ones would try and talk while they walked or would try to talk through the noise, but this one didn't. I heard a few stories I had never heard before and learned a lot. It was great, I will do it again! |

No Ghosts, but a Haunting Good Time :) |

I didn't see any real ghosts during the graveyard tour of Charleston, but I had a great time tromping around the graveyards of Charleston. And they really do have exclusive access to the ecumenical graveyard. Some guy was ready to chase us off until he recognized our guide, and said "Oh, it's you." The tale about the ghost who "likes" pregnant women was especially interesting. :-D |

More walk than talk... |

Much of the 90-minute tour was spent walking -- at times quite briskly to keep up. Some of the walking was a bit difficult, crossing dark cobblestone streets and then trying not to trip over uneven ground, rocks, and even pieces of graveyard headstones. If you are at all unsteady on your feet, this tour is not for you! The tourguide was friendly enough and has been doing this for a number of years. Some of the historical information he shared was interesting; but some of it conflicted with information we heard from other tourguides. As the tour was at night, and right around Halloween, I expected a few more "ghost" stories and a higher degree of spookiness. Overall, we were disappointed and felt a little more effort could have had better results. |

They can't take you down any residential streets, so much of the talking occurs in parking lots. But it was somewhat interesting. |

Well Worthwhile! |

My wife and I were in Charleston on our honeymoon and did the Ghosts and Graveyard tour on our first night in Charleston. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour, especially thanks to our guide, Tad, as he was a superb storyteller and exceptionally friendly. We had a great time and learned a great deal about Charleston's history in an interesting and different way. If you do go on the tour, make sure you try to get Tad as your guide...you will not be disappointed. |

It was Great! |

I really liked, it was very exciting.
I liked that they showed us pictures of the ghost.
And that we actually got to see the gravestones etc. |

Too much hot air! |

Tour guide seemed knowledgable in a "history teacher" sort of way, but not a great storyteller. Stories were drawn out too much, and we began to lose interest. We've been on many other tours in the area, and were a bit disappointed with this one. |
|
Great way to spend a Halloween weekend..... |

My husband and I went to Charleston for our 10 year anniversary and decided to do this tour since it was Halloween weekend. We had a great time learning about some of the local haunts. The graveyards were unbelievible, not only from the "spooky" stand point but from the history as well. |
|
Great ghost tour with an enthusiastic guide. |

I enjoyed the locations the guide chose as well as the stories he chose to tell. |
