Ghost tour
Thu, Nov 5  7:30 PM jaslomski Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified Unspecified
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.

Good for history buffs

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.

Missed the tour

When I had originally booked the tour I thought I had entered it for 9:30 pm. I really did not look at my confirmation regarding the time. We went to meet for the tour and no one showed up. I then looked at the confirmation very closely and saw that it was for 7:30. I know the letter stated there is no refund and no rescheduling so we ended up losing our money.

If you have never been on a ghost tour, this is a fun thing to do. However, we have been on a few of them in other cities. St. Augustine Florida has the best tour we have been to. On this one the stories were long, and there were not enough stops.

Good 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.
