I wish I would have written down the girls name who did our tour, but she was great, she told stories about the jail, with other history fact mixed in. I can tell that she put a lot of her own time into her tours to let us know about things in the past. I'm not sure about the other tours, but I would do this again, maybe they will open more parts of the jail

I myself love the unexplained so I was excited before we even got there, but my husband is not so convinced of the unexplained. But after this experience he will think twice before dismissing the thought that there is something else out there. Our tour guide was excellent!! We didn't get to see as much of the jail as i had hoped but what we captured on film makes up for that! We had several unexplained pictures that were taken and didn't realize what we had until after the tour and looking at them more carefully. Take lots of pictures!!! My husband and I had seperate cameras and we had several shots from the same location with different results! this was by far the best thing we did here in Charleston!! |

My husband and I went on this tour on Valentine's date, we spent the week end in Charleston. Just the two of us, without kids. And this was something that I have always wanted to do. So we did the Jail tour. I was a little disapointed that we didn't see any ghost, but the tour itself was excellent. And the staff was great also. I will recoment this tour and company to everyone. |

Suzzane was our tour guide and she was wonderful. We got to the jail while it was still light out and looked around outside by ourselves. Once the tour started the stories were wonderful...and creepy. I am a believer in the paranormal, however my teen daughter was unsure what to believe...until the camera incident. Her camera worked great outside. As soon as we entered the jail it stopped working. If she turned it on it acted very strange and was turning on and off by itself. we ignored this and were just upset that we couldn't get pictures inside. Other members of our group took pictures and we saw the "orbs" in their pictures....then when the tour was over our guide asked if there were any strange things that happened to us while inside. Some people described feeling something, the guide asked in anyone had any problems with their cameras or phones...we told her about ours and she said it will work again once we are away from the jail...IT DID! and to top it off, when we got back to our car we were looking at the pictures on it and there were very strange pictures that we DIDN'T TAKE...we are now all believers...there is someone in the jail. We highly recommend this tour... |

Our tour guide was AJ, and he was great! He was very enthuisiac and provided a great amount of history. I didn't, however, feel scared at all while in the jail. I was a little disappointed cause I thought they would have it set up like it was back then. There seemed to more more clutter and construction going on more than anything. Other than that, my husband and I still enjoyed ourselves. |

This was our first time in Charleston and we were only in town for 2 days. The tour was very interesting. We enjoyed hearing the stories and definitely the history of the jail which was very intriguing. Our tourguide was Suzann. She was very informed and an excellent storyteller! |

AJ was our guide and he was great. The jail tour was creepy and the history of the place was amazing. HIGHLY recommend this tour for history buffs and ghost afficinados (not many actual ghost stories, but you'll get the feel of the dead and haunted!) |

We had a great time! The tour guide was enthusiastic about the history of the jail as well as his experience giving tours of the jail. It was very interesting although we did not get to go in a lot of the rooms or upstairs it was a very fun experience. I caught some orbes with my camera. The really cool part was when I went to take some pictures of the hallway and as soon as the flash it seemed like a huge flash came out of the display screen on my digital camera it was extremely weird. We also heard some weird noises. The only bad thing about the tour is when u get stuck in a group with a know it all whos extremely rude and continuously cuts off the tour guide as well as talking and playing around during the tour! |

Our group, ranging in age from 12 to 74, thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the jail. Be aware that the neighborhood is sketchy at best. I do not advise walking from the ticket office to the tour location. |
