| My 17 year old son and I enjoyed this ghost tour. My son would have liked to have gone inside the places described. He particularly wanted to go in to the Unitarian Church. The speaker was animated which made his commentary interesting. It was good that he included modern events to keep your imagination going. |

| I really enjoyed this tour. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and I like walking as opposed to riding. |

"The Ghosts of Charleston- -Waterfront Park" is an excellent excursion for having fun and learning the history of some of Charleston's most interesting landmarks! Our tour was on June 18, 2007, and was conducted by a young man named "Jake".
It was obvious that Jake was extremely well-versed in Charleston's history, and his ability to relate the events surrounding the ghosts of Charleston was outstanding.
Jake obviously loves his job ,and he offered many interesting points of trivia that made our walk even more interesting. We left the tour with a greater appreciation for South Carolina history and a keen sense of curiosity about the possiblity of coming face to face with the ghosts of Charleston! We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city! |

| I really enjoyed this tour. It was very spooky, and even if you don't even believe in ghosts it would still be thrilling to listen to. |

| The Guide was a very well speaker and seemed to know his stuff although I kind of hoped for a closer look at some of the sites(more hands on). Overall it was a good experience and the guide was great |

| Our guide was very upbeat and really enjoys his job. The whole family had a wonderful time and really enjoyed the tour and the way it was presented. This is a "must do" that ties in a lot of the history of Chalreston. |

| My friends and I came to Charleston to celebrate our birthdays, and decided to take this tour. We came away very pleased with the experience. Obviously you can't enter the haunted buildings, as is standard with ghost tours (we have taken these tours in Philadelphia, London, and several other cities, and it is the same there), but the stories were very interesting. Our guide was wonderful and incorporated a lot of local history which made everything just that much better as far as our group was concerned; we took the carriage tour as well and found that the tours really played well off of each other, with the historical information in one supplementing what we saw in the other. In total, a very interesting and entertaining way to spend an evening. |

| our tour guide was Ben, Ben was outstanding, not only did Ben tell great stories, but he also was annimated, which added to the stories. The walking was not bad, and Ben keep everyone in step, and was very careful with everyone due to the heat.
This was an outstanding tour and we had a great time. If you are in doubt that you would like this type of tour, please give it a try it's well worth it. Make sure you get the full affect and go at night. |

| Our Ghost Tour Guide was WONDERFUL , however the tour it self just wasn't that scary. We walked the streets where all the pubs where located and there was just too much traffic to really hear the stories. The tour also said that we would be going through grave yards but we didn't. We stood outside the gates with a flashlight. It was entertaining but not scary all in all. We should have gone off the beaten path or down neighborhood streets so we could feel the impact and hear the stories .... could have been better !!
