| This tour was OK, but did not keep my attention. Guide talked more about history than ghost stories. Also repeated himself quite a bit. There were not that many locations we walked to,so it wasn't fast paced enough. The graveyard was great atmosphere, though. But, for the price, it didn't meet my expectations. |

Enjoyable & informative

| I recently took the 9:30 PM tour with friends while in Charleston on vacation and would recommend this tour to other visitors. I knew little about the history of this city and learned a great deal of interesting information about the alleged 'ghosts of Charleston' on this tour. We visited several sites of supposed ghost sightings and were told the related ghost story at each location, complete with a visit inside a graveyard. Our tour guide was funny without even trying to be and made the tour a memorable one. This tour is not intended to be scary in nature but I found it to be well worth my time and money! |

| Several good stories with facts about Charleston but the ghost stories were mediocre. Best part was the trip to the cemetary. |

| We have been on many ghost tours around the country ,and this one had to have been the best I have ever attended. Ian (our guide), was very lively..with a great sence of humor. He not only gave us ghost stories, but a lot of Charleston history to go along with it. It was obvious that he enjoys his job, as he was very enthusiastic about the stories he was telling. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Charleston, even if you are not into ghosts..you will get a great history lesson and have a lot of fun! |

| Silly me thought I was on a ghost tour, where ghost stories were told. In the hour and a half of the tour he told 2 stories. The rest of the time he spouted out history that had nothing to do with anything and tried to be funny by making as many puns as possible. I could have bought the book for the money that I spent on the tour and saved myself a big waste of time. |

| This tour was not interesting at all. With all the history in Charleston, surely more interesting stories can be found. We actually stopped by a house and the guide stated "This house is not haunted, but what if it was..." |

Not Enough Ghost Stories

| I went on the tour with a fellow local and a friend from out of town, and we all felt that Ian did not tell enough ghost stories. The tour was interesting, but it was mostly information about the city and general information on ghosts. We heard maybe 2 or 3 actual stories, and our tour that exceeded the usual tour time by about 20 minutes. The Unitarian Churchyard was great, but we spent way too much time there. |

Not exactly what we had expected but excellent!

| Our guide was excellent. He demonstrated exemplary knowledge of the history of Charleston. We enjoyed the tour and will attend again with other family members. |
