Great tour for history fan adults
Thu, Aug 20  8:00 PM paulgreer Unspecified 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I goofed up the reservation online but the Bulldog staff were very accomodating to change the tour date when I called them last week. Left the kids with my inlaws since this is "rated R". Wife wanted to do a ghost tour but I talked her into doing this one instead since the kids weren't with us. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable on the subjects of crime, prostitution and bizarre Charleston history. Who knew such a charming city had such a crazy past?? Wife and I both enjoyed the tour. FYI - it is RUDE to talk on your cell phone while on tour, even if you stand 15 feet away.

Not spooky
Wed, Aug 12  8:00 PM mfkos1 Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
This was definintely not spooky. The jail isn't abandoned. It's been turned into a college campus. There are classrooms in most of the rooms and lots of debris from building projects. It would have been much more believable in an empty (abandoned) building. The surrounding neighborhood isn't safe or somewhere I would normally venture. Drive your car to the jail - don't walk!

The tour really brought to life how awful the conditions were. Our guide was great! He was a good story teller. We were four adults ranging in age from 28 to 55

Its cool history but not haunted
Sat, Jul 18  10:00 PM edewey03 Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
Ok so we went to see this. First I wouldn't walk to it, DRIVE YOUR CAR. It's not in the greatest area and it was really dark. It was really hot in there and the tour was ok. Learned a lot about it from back in the day. It was neat to see the orignal doors and areas. But yes you only go into 3 rooms because A LOT of it is under construction. I hope that one day they set it up like it once was. It is so old that they are trying to restore it so it doensn't fall down. Most of it is closed because there is an oak tree grow in one of the buildings.

cahrleston city jail
Sat, May 16  10:00 PM NEMEISES Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
i went on the jail tour on 05/16/2009. the jail its self was worth the trip but the tour (to be nice about it ) i wouldnt go back if they paid me $18.00. i took that long trip to go through the whole jail and got to see three rooms. it needs to be on there site. only three or four rooms are open and since its half a jail tour it should be half price.

Lots of fun.

The guide seemed quite knowledgeable. However, we were not sure if he was telling everything as it had been "handed down", so to speak, or heavily embellishing. We love ghost stories...but we also love history and want our stories to be as accurate as possible. He did have great pictures sent to him by prior ghost walkers when their cameras and picture-taking divulged images of interest and those were enjoyable. We would recommend this tour to others as you can't beat a walk through Charleston at night no matter the storyteller.

Enjoyable, Entertaining, & Educational

I am from Charleston and had good friends with their children visiting from Kansas City, Missouri. We all found our tour guide to be entertaining, pleasant, and informative. It was a great walk through some areas I had not been through myself. The children in particular enjoyed the dungeon part of the tour. I would use this tour group again to entertain out of town guests.

This is a very good tour. Our guide, Susan, was very well rounded on the history of the jail. She pointed out at the beginning of the tour that it was a historical tour, not a tour to scare you... So don't expect any evil clowns or Freddy Kruegers to come jumping out at you. We were told that this is the best ghost tour in Charleston and my wife and I fully agree. Don't forget to bring your camera... you won't regret it.

Good tour; go after dark
Mon, May 5, 08   7:00 PM KJAnderson Unspecified Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
The tour guide (Ginger) was very knowledgeable about the tour and a good story teller. There was another group on the property (part of the school that actually owns the property) and they were building things and playing music which was distracting from the tour and sort of put a damper on the atmosphere. I would recommend going on a later tour (after 8:00 pm) to avoid these distractions and have the added benefit of a spooky tour after dark.

Very informative and entertaining
Mon, Apr 7, 08   8:00 PM PattiLee Unspecified Unspecified Combination Group of Friends
Our guide was very versed on a tremendous amount of history of Charleston. The ghost stories were astonishing and quite believable. The walk thru the cemetary was really amazing as one of the guest actually saw a large white ghost bent over one of the graves as we approached the cemetary.
