| I did not like the tour guide, who spent more time telling random facts rather than ghost stories. On our 80 minute tour, only 3 ghost stories were told, and we were taken on random routes throughout the city. I have been on several ghost tours in various cities throughout the US, and this was by far the worst ghost story. Normally after a tour, I feel that I have learned a lot of history about the city. After this tour, I did not get this feeling. Our tour guide spent the last 30-40 minutes telling us his own personal story, and it was so strange and not at all in keeping with the description of the tour. I was very unsatisfied by this tour, and would recommend any other Charleston ghost tour over this comapny's. |

| We thought we'd get a witty, fun tour of Charleston. What we got was walking around alleys, and some ok stories, told with little enthusiasm. The one graveyard we went to was neat, but it was so dark, you really couldn't appreciate it. The guide knew his stuff, but was uninteresting.
People freaking out about the Palmetto bugs was more fun than the tour. |

Exciting and an Adventure!

| It's a great family activity, but if you're REALLY into ghosts and want something a little more in depth and hands on, this probably isn't the tour for you.
It's great for an overall history and walkabout and especially for families with kids. |

| This was our second walking ghost tour and all members of our party left a little disappointed (our first ghost tour in Savannah, GA was excellent). The tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. However we all agreed that there was too much emphasis on Charleston's history and not enough ghost stories. In an hour and a half we only heard one ghost story, two stories explaining personal experiences and loads of history. We would not recommend this tour. |

| I had high expectations about the tour, so I thought I would fell let down. That was not the case. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and told good stories, both ghost and historical fact and trivia. The only negative comments I have is that we left at least fifteen minutes late and fifteen or more minutes was spent with the history of the settlement of Charleston. I would have rather had fifteen extra minutes walking around and having an extra story or two told. |

| Our tour guide (Ben) was very enthusiastic and a great speaker. In addition to the Ghost stories, he gave us a lot of very interesting facts about history in Charleston. |

| We have participated in other tours in Charleston, including other ghosts tours. The group leader was the weakest we have experienced; not particularly well spoken nor did she use antidotes to improve the experience. Had this been the first tour we had taken, it is unlikley we would do it again. |
